Looks to me like it's a strip from a framing nailer, maybe a roofing nailer. I was cruising through this neighborhood on the way to a job, my guess is someone there had their roof redone and some day laborer trash threw some left over nails in the street.

Looks like it's time for a new tire. By the looks of it, it's too close to the sidewall to be patched/plugged. Is that a KDW by any chance?

Ow!!

Same thing happened to me, except not so many nails. The people across the street and down one got their roof done. I picked up a long roofing nail in my week-old big-*** truck tires.

What a pain.

Sumitomo. And yeah, ended up getting two new tires. The only place that had any of that size, only had two, and they were Goodyear F1's. Didn't want mismatched tires on the rear, so I got them both.
