Someone mentioned to me that there is a tire puncture sealer that comes in a can with enough air in it to get you back on the road for awhile. Is this a good idea for the S2000, so as not to have to use the rinky-dink spare?

If you have a slow leak, using this stuff is ok. It won't inflate a tire with moderate damage. Make sure that if you use it to tell the tire repair people. It gets all over them when they remove the tire from the wheel.

Yea, that stuff creates an unholy mess on the inside the tire. I would try to avoid it, but it can work in a pinch, I suppose.

 

Only use this in an emergency. That stuff is the worst stuff known to man. It's also very flammable. You can't properly fix a tire (patch-plug) after it's been used. The patch will never really stick well. Buy a small air tank & inflate the tire to get you to a place that can fix your tire properly.

 

I had heard that the stuff will stick to the rim and is impossible to get off, thereby forever throwing off the balance. Is this true?

 

Read the fine print on the can. You should NOT use it with our tires.

Get a small compressor if your that worried about it.

 

here is a video of a guy using it on his F355, hilarious!
