Kopfjaeger Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 (edited) Found this in my NSR tyre this morning 😡 It doesn't look accidental either, to my paranoid mind.🙄🤣🤣🤣🤣. So I've unscrewed it from the tyre. The head end is missing the head and suspiciously smooth. I can't see how this got in the tyre accidentally.

Ray112 Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 All sorts of possibilities to get there by accident. For example somewhere near kerb while parking. If someone would put it with purpose under your tyre, it would be punctured through. You can call yourself a very lucky man this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopfjaeger Posted September 29 Author Share Posted September 29 Maybe, but I think it unlikely. My car is rarely parked near a kerbside. I've already replaced the rear tyres on my F07 once in the 4 years I've owned it and about 20k miles, from nails or screws. No problem with the front tyres. I don't frequent industrial areas, or building sites. I just find it really odd. Especially since I never had any of these problems in my Grandis, driving to the same places. So something else to look put for now🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncan-uk Posted Monday at 12:38 Share Posted Monday at 12:38 No i think just unfortunate, to screw it in as you suggest needed to be done from inside the arch which seems tricky and if you wanted to mess with a tyre you'd put it through the side wall surely? The heads missing as its worn away on the road. Nothing sinister just bad (or good) luck. Unless you have enemies of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopfjaeger Posted Monday at 17:04 Author Share Posted Monday at 17:04 Hmm, maybe. I'd expect more damage to the tyre, if that is the case. Enemies? Oh yes, but only one documented death threat lodged with my Solicitor, but that was over a decade ago.🤣🤣🤣🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
