Pirelli PZero run flats?
I got a nail in one of my tires and TPM showing that its lost a good portion of air. If I fill it back up would it be safe to drive on it for a mile to a repair shop?

Tires are basically brand new

Thanks in advance

You should be fine if the nail is still in the tire. It will be a slow leak and probably won't lose much air at all in a one mile trip to a tire shop. The PZero's on the 991 are not run flats.

Just have your MFD on tire pressure so you can monitor it as you drive and fill it up with the air compressor if you start to run low and if you have to. Local driving, of course.

Don't remove the nail and you'll be fine.
