Hi just pulled out a 4 inch nail which was imbedded in my rear tyre, thankfully it did not puncture the tyre my question is this will it be still safe to ride around with or will i need to buy another tyre.
ps. The nail was imbedded on the side.

Thanks guys i guess i will be buying a new tyre very soon, i've nearly done 8000 km on it anyway. What is the average price of a rear tyre fitted.
Just got quoted $351 from the stealers fitted WTF.
Tyre size is 200 mm Dunlop d407
Personally, if it's still holding air, I'd keep riding it.
If it was the front tyre, I'd replace the bugger.
Put a tube in it if your worried!
Burto.
I would replace it, much cheaper than a trip to the Hospital or worse.
Swap bikes with your mate,ride it through the mountains one day, if no probs then you will be fine!
Thanks guys for getting back to me, i've decided to buy a new tyre next week so the question is what brand of tyre should i buy.
Rear 200 Dunlop should be about $350 fitted.
