They sell the pink tire sealant at Hoffpauirs here in lampasas and goldthwaite. That is what I use and have never had a flat.

Rex,

     Did they install it for you, or do they sell it in something smaller than a 5 gallon jug?  If I recall correctly, it is made by a company in the Fort Worth area, but I have never tried real hard to find it in a consumer sized package.

Rex,

   Disregard my last post.  Google just helped me out. I found it in gallon jugs.

Matt,

    My Honda Foremans still have the pink slime in them. I changed out tires on both bikes after about 2 years. No problems with the rims that I noticed. Course they are both aluminum wheels, I don't know if it might react with the steel wheels.
Seems like I was paying $7.50 per tire for the pink stuff, and the stuff today is $15.00 per tire. If it works like the pink stuff, I will be happy, even though it cost twice as much.

I have had several tires changed out and do not know of a problem. I have yet to have a flat but these cheap polaris tires keep bubbling on the inside wall.

Buddy at the polaris store just sells me the pull offs...cheaper than I can buy a new tire and they put the sealant in them. I think they sell the gallon sealant for $20.

They buy it ..... because the polaris store puts their label on it.
