What Ride-On do you use for the Spyder?

[DR Buck]

I see Ride-On advertised for ATVs, Motorcycles, cars, trucks, etc. The Spyder uses car type tires, so which Ride-On do you use?

Automotive, from what the company told me.

:agree: And it mite have a bad wobble for a bit I went to the Hwy an got up to 70 and it smoothed right out and all good from then on.

I had the same question. the manufacturer tech told me that the Automotive is better at balance and the motorcycle version is better at puncture protection. It was my call. I chose the motorcycle brand for protection. The balance is tooth jarring for about 3 miles after sitting idle for a couple of days but smoothes out perfectly.

Thats just me.

My Ride-On order arrived last Thursday. I plan on putting it into the front and rear tires this week. Questions I have concern wheel weights. On their web site Ride-On indicates the weights should be removed. Is this correct? Does the Ride-On actually rebalance the tires after the weights are removed?

I left mine and it worked just fine. I suggest leaving the weights at first. If you have a problem after the tires warm up and the Ride-On is well distributed, then try removing them. JMHO

I am running the automotive Ride-On in my tires without any weights and it works great. Even after sitting still for about 6 months, I only had a little bounce in the front right wheel for about 500 feet at the most. Highly recommend this stuff. :thumbup:

We use the automotive Ride-on in our Spyder tires (it helps balance the tires and also self-seals in case of a puncture). A little bumpy when it is first put in but I'd say that didn't last 1/4 mile or so.

Ride-On is a self balancing tire sealant product that many people use in their tires. It is a chemical compound that you put inside the tires through the valve stem. You can learn more about it here: http://www.ride-on.com/ . We use the automobile version in our Spyder tires.
