Best Tire Plugging Kit?
For those of us with no spare finding a great kit to fix flats while the tire is still on the car is extremely important. Has anyone used the "Stop & Go Tire Mobility Kit" with the mushroom plugs. I need a kit that can used along the side of the road and no jack. Anyone input on other kits is appreciated. I just I can always use the green slime--my car does not have tire pressure sensors. Thanks

I went to my local auto zone and bought a little case that has a file kinda thing and a plug to insert the plug, It cost about 9 bucks, I haven't used it, But a friend at work did and after months it is still holding air just fine.
I carry this kit, A small scissor jack, an Z06 air pump, a 4 way tire iron AAA, Cell phone and a number of choice tools.

Most leaks will be caused by a nail or screw in the tire and leak slowly. If possible, just keep pumping up the tire until you reach a repair shop. I do also carry a plug kit but only intend to use it as a last resort.

I bought a plug kit made by Victor at Wal-Mart - If I recall right it cost about $10.
