Ya NO if u have a prob with it just get it fixed cause i worked n a tire shop an u have no idea how nasty that stuff is. an its great for a riding mower or thangs like that. an it can throw it out of balance.an maybe in an emergency. Just my thoughts.

I recommend using Ride-On in the tires. It helps to balance the tires and is a sealant.

If you use Ride On make sure to get the Automotive type and not the motorcycle type

 

[NancysToy]

No, no, no, no, no! If you want to use something, use Ride-On. As was said, automotive formula.

No slime..!!

Was developed to fix flats. Later to run in atv's lawn equipment then ventured further. It should be used for that. High speeds and temps need better..!!:agree: stop thinking....:roflblack:

 

[Robertsepolen]

This is precisely why I love this site! Thanks to all!
No slime here!

Ride-on works great,we use it in both Spyders:yes:

Anyone remember using canned milk in their bicycle tubes. Can't say it worked, but it made some really cool bubbles when ya pulled that goat head out......:roflblack:

Putting slime in anything traveling faster than a riding mower is a big mistake. Ride-On works great. That's the way to go.

Thank Goodness for this information !! I have been carrying a can of Slime on the :spyder2:, and now I will set it on the shelf for my tractor, etc. Ride on will replace it. Thanks again...

No No

Go with Ride-On

 

[Desert Spyder]

I'm not even sure about Ride On any more. I once got some crazy wicked vibrations, mechanic took the tire off the rim and found the Ride On had formed into a big ball. The product has a convincing video. Maybe I was the exception. At least carry a puncture repair kit.

Doesn't all that kind of goop make a mess out of the tire-changing chores? :shocked:

I see the mention of amounts per tire. I am not familiar with this product but am considering it for spyderfest ride. Enlighten me on how the product is used and how you install it with precise amounts.
Thanks

About to head out so I will make this quick.

Drain air out of tire (Keep tire up with a jack)

Remove valve core with tool provided

Connect provided tube to stem and fill the tire with the amounts mentioned

Blower out stem and install valve core

Refill tire

Ride for > 15 minutes to spread the Ride-On evenly

Enjoy the ride!

Also, if you put container in bucket of warm/hot water prior to install it flows into tire much easier.
Ride ON is having a special and damaged label product currently.

We always carry puncture kit but thought maybe both would be good.
