screw in tire..recommend tyre repair shop
thx1138:
went to soh tyres after work this evening.
the screw was removed and they found that there was no leak, probably cos the screw is quite a small and short one. phew..
i suggest you go and remove it, and if no leak then at least some peace of mind. if leak just get it patched up.
cheers

If you keep the screw inside the tire, the condition may worsen after prolonged driving and leaking may start. If u r unlucky enuff, driving over uneven/rocky roads, the tire may just rupture because the point with the screw is weak already.
Remove it for safety, it is not expensive :smile:
