Does anybody use slime in their tires ? How well does it work?

Yes, I have it in my atv tires. It says to use a whole bottle per tire, but I used 1 bottle for two 27" tires. You put it in and drive it around a while and it seals everything up. It stopped my slow leaks on my gators.

 

I wouldn't go anywhere without it. I have used the HD slime (black rubber chunks in it) for several years. I used to live in Nebraska and Utah where there is a ton of cactus. Never have any flats with slime. You are supposed to take width X height X .12 to determine the number of ounces to use. Walmart has gallons with a pump for $28.??. A gallon should do most atvs with some left over. I've used other brands but have settled on HD slime.

 

i have it and love it the first time i went riding with it in them i got a big thorn in one of my tires and just pulled it out and the slime seals it right up i would never go anywhere without slime in my tires

 

I bought my kingquad used and they had slime in the back tires. When I took the old back tires off of the rim the slime was just that slime it was very nasty and after seeing what it looks like inside of a tire and it didn't help that tire because it was still going flat very fast so I would not recommend slime or anything like it. I would just make sure the tires are aired up before you leave camp. You can buy many types of air compressors actually you can even buy a 12V air compressor that will plug in your 12V plug on your atv and air your tire up while on the trail. That's just my opinion on this. But after I bought my ITP mudlites I didn't have a problem with flats.

 

I have slime in my tires as well. Living in wyoming you wont get home without it due to the cactus here. It works well, just a little messy if you change the tires and such. They will still go flat if you stick something big in your tire, but for cactus, thorns, ect.. it works well.

 

I had slime in my old tires and man it works awsome, but when i changed my tires it was really messy.

 

You can rinse it off with a garden hose. They are all messy when you change tires, but beats flat tires.

 

That's very true.
