Does anyone know of someone who can/will repair?
If the tyre resells after the screw is removed (this one didn’t, again!) how far can you drive on the reseal?
A bit far to come from New York, but my back street garage in Clowne, Derbyshire will fix anything for a tenner......

Can the wheels be swapped or does the whole tyre need removing, replacing balancing etc.
I have direct TPMS with sensors in both summer and winter sets. I rotate and swap tyres about all the time and the TPMS works faultlessly.

But point of note. I never mix my winter and summer sets up. It is either all winter or all summer tyres.

Same with my local one in the Scottish Borders, £6 for a puncture, £9 if it needs rebalancing (they don't always if he puts the tyre back on in the same place).

I'm not sure regarding the Contiseal tyres as both of my Volvo's have had Pirelli P-Zero's fitted as the factory tyre so no issues repairing those (provided the puncture isnt near the shoulders) vs repairing Contiseal.

I hope you manage to find a solution as having to replace a perfectly good tyre is really annoying.
