I've got a can of the new fix a flat. That along with a tire plugger kit and a small compresser should be all I need. I've been told that after using the stuff you remove the tire rinse it out of the inside, repair the tire, clean the sensor and remount the tire. Going to Bloomington Gold next Friday but I hope I won't need any of this stuff. If anything it makes me feel better.

Doesn't Discount Tire recommend against using the stuff? Forgot why.

Still probably a good idea to keep a can handy. In a pinch, I'd use it since I don't have run flats or a spare (Z06).
