If you have a punctured tubeless tire, you can still drive your car for a limited distance, but it is not recommended to drive for an extended period or at high speeds. The exact distance you can drive depends on several factors, including the severity of the puncture, the size of the tire, the weight of the vehicle, and the condition of the road.

When a tubeless tire gets punctured, the air will gradually leak out, causing the tire to lose pressure. As the tire loses pressure, it becomes increasingly difficult to control the vehicle and maintain safe driving conditions. Additionally, driving on a flat or severely underinflated tire can cause damage to the tire itself, as well as the wheel rim.

As a general guideline, if you have a minor puncture and the tire is still holding some air, you can drive for a short distance, typically around 50 miles (80 kilometers), at reduced speeds (around 50 mph or 80 km/h). This distance is a rough estimate and can vary depending on the factors mentioned earlier.

It is strongly recommended to replace or repair the punctured tire as soon as possible to ensure your safety on the road.
