slime or otherwise

[Limomike]

Anyone use Slime or a product like it in your tractor tires? Just wondering if anyone has had any luck with it or not.

The front tires on my tractor each have at least two quarts of slime in them. They still leak air If the tractor sits for a week. I have to air the tires before each use. I looked into used recapped airplane tires and I believe that is the way to go. I would have already ordered them but we decided to bring one of my front wheels to the dealer which is 150 miles north of Montgomery. Check the board for my past posts and the resulting information. Good luck, Tom :cboy:

How about just repair the leaks in the tires and you don't need it...

Consider yourself very fortunate. That stuff is a tremendous pain in the hiney (and tires). :tiphat:

After years of patching tubes I have filled my front tires and got rid of the tubes. We have Honey Locust and I'm always good for at least one flat per year. Have had no flats since going to Slime. I have also gotten rid of the calcium chloride in one of my rear tires. I found some old Oliver "dish" weights and installed them along with a gallon of Slime. I restored the rim and hope this works. So far so good.
