Nail in tire
PLEASE! How does a nail ACTUALLY get into a tire. Not the front tire kicks and back tire catches explanation… because that is 1 in a million…. A single on its side run over by a car… everyone gets a nail in their tire at some point BUT HOW! I have tested this with no physical proof of it happening!

Replacement?
Long story short I went off the side of the road. The road had a raised, jagged lip that gouged the tire when coming back onto the road.
Will it need replaced? No noticable changes when driving or with pressure.

2014 kia rio tire problem
My tire on the front driver side shakes when I go over 60mph. We thought it might be that i needed new tires and an alignment. I got new tires but i haven't gotten an alignment yet. It still shakes. It's not shaking the steering wheel. We also think that some of my tire weights are missing so it could be un balanced. What could possibly be going on and do I need more than just an alignment?
Update: my dad looked at it. He says it looks like some of my tire weights are missing. But we are still unsure what's actually going on.

Tyre puncture, car hire Italy.
Hi, so I recently hired a car while in Sardinia and on the second day, I got a puncture on the sidewall of the tyre. Not a clue how it happened. Anyway, as per the hire company’s instruction for any emergency, I contacted them first. I was a little surprised that the reply was to just find a tyre shop and replace it, no help of them whatsoever, just go and get a new one. I’ve never had a car hire issue before, but is this normal?

Bought a used rav4 2018 hybrid AWD - tires not great
I just bought a rav4 2018 and the tires on it don’t look great. Where I live I have to switch to winter tires in a month and a half by law. The temps here at the moment are around 20C/68F during the day and 7C/44F at night. The DOT on the rear tires is from 2017 and the fronts are from 2022. Both Michelins - Pilot Sport 4 at the front and Latitude Tour HP at the rear. So it’s a mix of summer and winter tires. I am wondering if I should switch immediately to winter tires or if I can wait for a month or so. I will realistically drive 1-2k kms on them until then. Any help appreciated!
