Nail in tire shoulder
Hi Everyone,
I found a nail embedded in the shallow part of the tire shoulder yesterday, not sure how long it was in there for. I took it to a mechanic and he took it out and did the bubble test - found no air leakage. He said I could drive it as is without patching, but i did some online searching it said any damage to the shoulder tire would require replacement of the tire? I have attached photos. I don't know much about car so your input is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Nail in shoulder
Nail removed

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

that instruction is for patching. Since no patch required (nail did not go through the tire towards the inside of the tire) the rule does not apply.
