[jmcy28]

My carts front tire145/70/6 has a slow leak and anotere tire on a blower/vac 4" has slow leak.

Need more info than just that. Have you tried it and proven it wrong? If so, what kind of leak did you have? Tire punture maybe? I was told it does not work on the small tires but was never given proof that it does or does not. I have a thing of it at home and I think I am going to try it. More to follow.

I have tried it on my son's kart and it works, the tires had a slow leak and the sides were cracking so i filled them up with the slime as per their instruction and so far so good. It's been maybe four months now and tires have not gone flat.

ime the slime has leaked all over the place and during riding conditions the tire would leak air maybe the hole was o big for it to work as designed

That could pose an issue. Dont want that stuff flying every where. I think I will give it a try anyway and see what results I get.

Thanks all! I think I'll get some tubes for now,and get all new shoes in the spring.

Actually if I do it and then have to replace the tires I was just going to get new rims. Maybe some nice crome ones

Chrome rims will make the kart look sharp.

Tire sealants dont work most of the time. Slime, Briggs sealant, FAF, etc...They MIGHT seal a small pin prick for a few days, but it will still leak down, and when you go to finally fix it right the stuff has soaked into the rubber, made a mess, and the rim requires solid scrubbing.

Ive done at least 100 tires/wheels with sealant in them over the last year at work, The stuff just doesnt work, our tires flex too much! A tube is a cheap fix, a new tire is the right answer in the long run.

I know this blog is old but I just had to post our finding. We found a company that had every tire we were looking for and at prices I couldn't believe. We needed tires for two of our Atv's one Utv and my Buggy. But we received them and they looked and work great so I had to post this. The shipping was fast and they actually knew what they were talking about and knew just what I needed. It has been a long time and a painful deal looking for the right size tires and then finding someone that stocked them and knew what they were talking about then just to top things off the price. I thought they made a mistake but I looked at there website again and unbelievable prices. PM me if you want the website address.

Why bother promoting them, if you're not giving out their link? If you decide to post the link it would fit nicely in this Post of Vendor Listings which is the only place links are allowed for advertisement.

I was not sure if the rules of the forum would allow it or not and being I'm new to the forum I didn't want to start any trouble with any advertising sponsors or supporters.

It's OK as long as long as it helps out another member, but it would need to be added to the vendor list. And BTW welcome to GoKartsRUS!

Are you saying it needs to post in venders list or I can post the link here. I looked for a venders list and couldn't find one.
