JIMBOBLY:
im gonna be honest with you mate,i personally would never use any of it,ive been a tyre fitter for ten years,you can have trouble with balancing them,they dont always work,sometimes the tyre goes down and you cant find the hole when you take the tyre off,and some off them corrode the wheels inside bad :(

landmannnn:
Tyre fitters hate the stuff because of the mess.

I have used it, can't remember the brand (tyre slime is a brand name) since I was getting punctures almost weekly.  It does work but to do 4 big tyres will cost £40.

J.D.:
Just get your local tyre place to stick a tube in it mate, or it might be mud in the bead. Get them to take it off the rim and clean the bead and reinflate, it might cure it.

Jonny Boaterboy:
Thats a good Idea JD, But I would like to have the extra cover for when I'm camping in the middle of nowhere.

as far as the balancing goes JIMBOBLY  the stuff I have found claims no to affect it

What do you think to this?
