    Yep, looks you ran over a chunk of wood pallet or something with a nail sticking out. The nail goes in your tire and the wood disintegrates.

    Great way to get an OOS order.

    The tire needs to be replaced.

    Is it leaking or is it just in the tire?

    You'll encounter one once in awhile.

    I've even had a bolt. Closer to the tread though.

    Anything in the sidewall can't be repaired. Has to be replaced.
