Why is it that most tyres (in my experience) develop punctures close

in the middle of the tread (where they can be)?

I had two 255/35R19 Y tyres on the old carÂ* that had punctures in the
centre of the tread. Simple fixes. Then I a screw go in right on the
edge of the sidewall of the latest car when I had had it for only 4
days. Ruined a 255/40R18Y RF that had only 2250 miles on it. Not a
cheap replacement.

I get more punctures than average. I suppose it goes with working on
building sites.

How do screws always know how to go for the newest tyres?



They are sniffing out the mould release agent.
