Had picked up a nail last month, the tubeless tires’ sealant was dried up already and didn’t hold air. Fast forward to now, these are fairly new gravel king SS+ tubeless (maybe 300 miles so far) and brand new first ride for the elite wheels. The sealant was fresh from yesterday. If the tire hold air overnight, should I do anything (plug, patch, replace) or leave it alone?
Thank you

omg the timing is so cruel!! brand new wheels first ride and you get a nail? universe playing some sick joke on you lol. if it holds air overnight you’re probably fine but maybe add a bit more sealant just to be safe.
That is a long screw. How does the rim bed look was it scratched or punctured?
Second vote for removing the tire and checking the rim bed.
Unfortunately the right thing to do is to take the tire off the rim and manually patch it from inside. It did its job to get you home 🏠
