I found this product in the back of a magazine and I was wondering if anyone has ever used it. http://www.tireguard...dian-works.html Seems like a great idea to me while on 2 wheels.

Thanks

Slime is another one.
Not a bad idea. Not really aware of any negatives.

some shops will charge you extra labor for tire changes with "slime" in them...it makes a huge mess at tire change time. And it makes them way harder to plug in an emergency.
Cheers!

Ive extensively tested, slime up to 125 mph , worms, and Tire mush room pluggers for external repair


The winner for external repair is THe Big Slime worms, they are the most reliable. Slime fluid seems to leak over time, the mush rooms easily fail if any road contact , in as little as 500 mile. The slime worms Normally last an easy 1200 miles.

I invested in a full internal repair set up, but Id still worm slime a tire if needed

Even worse with these things is you can't use Dynabeads for dynamic tire balancing.

I'm a dynabeads convert!
