Well it seems that I had some fans and hit some sore
spots with others. I did not mean in any way to offend anyone with myFix
a Flat bash, I just had bad experiences with it all the way around. Ihad
a 1971 Datsun 240Z with aluminum rims, it had Fix a Flat in every tire whenI
bought it. Needless to say, I didn't make any friends down at Sears when I
had the still leaking tires fixed. Four new tires were required and wire
wheeling all four rims to make them seal was what it took to get my car back on
the road again.
Yes, I have been out in the dark in the middle of the
night and had to change a tire. It was even snowing and I slid into acurb
and cut the side wall on the tire of my Pontiac, don't think Fix a Flat will
help a 4 inch cut in a side wall. As far as replacing the spare with Fix a
Flat, do what you want, but the spares in all of my vehicles and my D are
maintained just like the rest of the car and I have never needed a can of the
white goo.
You could get home and save a tow bill if the stuff
will seal the hole, but the results of using the stuff are far more painfulthen
pulling the spare and cheap jack out and changing a tire on the side of the
road.
Just for fun, go to your local tire shop and askthem
of their opinion of Fix a Flat and see what kind of answer you get. Use it
if you like it, I'll stick with the reliable spare.
