My Predator recently had a front flat. The tire shop used a goo to fix it, kinda like the green stuff but supposedly better. Now when I get up to about 35 or 40 MPH the frontend starts to shake back and forth. Any suggestions?? Can I put goo in the other front to balance it? Did I mount the wheel improperly? I used to work in a tire shop so I think I know how to do it. Does the red Thing that goes on before the wheel need to be put on a certain way? Any suggestions would be appreciated! Can I put balancing stuff in the tires? I believe this can be done with big truck tires.

Thanks Bret

 

I would remove the two front tires and weigh them to see if you really have that much of a change in the two wheels!!!A little bit of "GOO" should not make the atv shake that much at 35-40 mMPH.

 

I for got to say the "GOO" could have dried and caused a large lump to settle in the bottom when it was still!!!

 

sounds a lot like that's what happenned.

 

Thanks for the replies! I should probably just buy a new tire. Are there any problems with the green Stuff? It stays liquid until a puncture right? I'll get some for all four tires.

actually as a rule of thumb i'd try to just stay away from any sealing compound entirely. With a car it's fine, but something so light as a quad is very easily thrown around by any sort of balance issue with a tire. If one of your tires goes flat, an innertube will fix it fine, i'd just try to stay away from any of those additives... my $.02
