Or for another 15 bucks you can go to autozone and buy one of those portable air tanks that you fill up at the gas station.

Re: filling the tires..

FixaFlat is the worst thing poss.......ruins the rim and makes such a mess and you will always have heavy spots and will never balance out due to the shitty liguid sloshing around in there

Re: filling the tires..

Re: filling the tires..

cause air just isn't as cheap as it was

.. using swamp scum that is passed off as " SLIME (green) " is a lot cheaper
