Why not use Fix A Flat sensor safe, it pressurizes the tire and fixes the flat tire!!! seriously why get on the ground laying down and try to find where the hole is with a plug kit?, or why spend the money and time on a tow truck, most of what you guys say makes no sense. No matter what tire you have you need to get it patched! and using sensor safe tire inflator, sealer is the best way to go period!

Has anyone on here actually used the Fix-A-Flat Sensor Safe. Does it work, does it really not hurt the sensor?
On this site and a few others I have heard it is such a mess some shops won't even work on a tire after it has been used.
I have no idea! Just asking the question.
I used it on my riding lawn mower to fix rim leaks and it worked but the wheel speed is pretty low on that ride. I haven't taken it apart to see what is actually inside the tire now.

I have to say, as much as I preferred the security factor, the next set of tires will not be runflats. I like the Continentals mentioned in another post.
I just added PS2 ZPs to the rear, and these tires are the noisiest tires I've ever experienced. And they are brand new! My guess is that since most of the tread blocking is cosmetic, essentially it is a slick with large grooves. These PS2's sing like a mad man on different road surfaces especially concrete bridges.
So when these go along with the A/S ZPs on the fronts, probably in 20K or less, I will go non-run flat and no longer am a Michelin fan.
