Always been a bit sceptical about these, but as new cars now only come with a can of foam rather than a complete tyre and wheel has anybody used one and what are they like after?
This morning the mrs returns home with a very flat tyre and a drywall screw sticking out the middle of the tread.
I followed the instructions on the tin of gloop carefully, having the obligatory cup of tea whilst the can earned on the radiator.
We have a 4x4 so the tin didn't quite inflate the tyre, there is a garage 200m down the road so took it there to top up to its recommended pressure, reset the monitoring system and waved her off to work.
I am now late so will have some toast and more tea before venturing outside again.
Question is are these cans any good? Do I need a new tyre? It's only half worn and the screw was right in the middle of the tread.
It's a good 5 or 6 miles to her work which is the recommended distance to drive once can used
