Sorry, stupid question, but I don't know what to do: I drove over a curb today with my right rear tire, and when I got out to check if everything's alright, I found a nail stuck in the tire. It went in where the thread starts, alongside the tire wall. The tire looks good, it didn't lose any pressure, but this two inch nail is in it now. Should I just leave it there?

I had a nail in my tire once. I was like, hey whats this and pulled it out. The tire started going flat as I tried desperately to put the nail back in. Did'nt work. Fix a flat made it to the shop for a patch though.
