Hey guys,

Just bought my CL '97, and I noticed that my rear right tire is slowly leaking air. I cant seem to find the leak, and I kinda wana take care of it myself without involving a tire shop....

Any reviews about those tire foams? The ones used to fix a flat by injecting a foam into the tire before filling it? Any idea how good or bad tht is?

Thanks!

 

They can cause a problem with balance, and they are only made to be temporary fixes. If its a slow leak a plug may be too much, I'd just get it patched.

Did you check the valve stem. Put a little soapy water in the stem to see if it leaks.

 

Um take it to a tire shop

 

seriously, it costs like $10 to take it to a shop.

 

ive used fix a flat before and it worked great, no balance issues. You just have to make sure you drive around so that it coats the inside evenly.

 

I work at a Tire shop and FIX a FLAT = TERRIBLE. It eats the wheel and the ruins the tire. If you want to find the leak get some windex put 40lbs of air and spray that sucker down.

 

lol damn never knew that. seems to work well for a quick fix tho
