My wife's Subaru Outback is punctured!

[Lozano]

My wife has a 2021 Subaru Outback but recently a tire was punctured by a nail on the road. Do I need to change all 4 tires? Will there be a problem if I only change that 1 punctured tire? I have researched some tires for my wife's car like Michelin CrossClimate 2, CrossContact LX25 at https://tireer.com/best-tires-for-subaru-outback/ . But its price is quite high. Need everyone's advice! Many thanks for the help!

Since the car is "fairly new", you just need to replace one tire if it is beyond repair.

If one of your tires has been punctured by a nail, you can replace just that tire, but it's generally recommended to replace all four tires at the same time. This is because tires wear differently, and if you only replace one tire, you could end up with uneven wear that could affect the handling and stability of your vehicle.
