Puncture advice, replace one tyre or two.

Over the last few days I’ve lost a couple of psi from one of my tyres, had a look today using soapy water to see if I could find the puncture, turns out I’ve got a very small puncture but it’s within an inch of the tyre wall, so guess I need to replace the tyre, what’s the general consensus, do I replace one or both front tyres, tread depth is 5mm. I’m leaning towards getting both changed. Thumbs Up

If it’s a inch away from sidewall it could be repaired,can you post a pic,if it needs replacing pu the new one to the nsf & the 5mm one to the osf & everything will be fine. Andy.

Looks too close to the edge for a repair so probably a new tyre needed. Andy.
