Found this

Since I put 20" on the AWD if I got a flat I couldn't use the spare, So I removed the spare and just hope for the best. I looked into slime but it's nogood for the tire sensors. As you SRT-8 guys know you have a set up. But if you use it you will be shelling out like $75.00 to replace the stuff. + I looked into buying that set up and it's $$$. So I found yesterday Fix a Flat has a new can out that is tire sensor safe !!! It's better then nothing and @ $3.50 I'll give it a shot. I haven't seen anything on it so Im looking to find out if anyone knows why it wouldn't be good.

I see it's non-flammable too and that's good!

One of my buds got minor burns but scared the crap out of him dismounting a tire with the old flammable stuff in it!

Just make sure you drive immediately after putting that stuff in to spread it around evenly. I've seen people fill it up and let it sit throwing the tire way out of balance when the stuff accumulated in one spot.

Also, know that a lot of tire places will not plug a tire that has had fix a flat put it in it.

isn't that like a temporary fix
how long would it last??

I used fix a flat yrs. ago, I know how to use it , this 1 is just in case and i hope I will never need it. But it is the fastest way back on the road.

It's is temporary but so is everything else. It say to have tire repaired by tire professioal at the earliest opportunity. I know people who have used the old fix a Flat and never fixed anything and was ok. I'm sure that is on there so they don't have any legal troub. I would always go get it fixed.
