What? Can you provide some sort of proof that Fix-a-flat rusts your wheels? I am talking about non-isolated incidences.

Used it on my dads BMW 325i It got us to the tire shop, about 50 miles away... Also used on my fourwheeler, works great! Just make sure you dont get any anywhere but inside the tire, and dont use it and forget it... Use it, get somwhere to replace a tire ASAP

Stuck on the side of an empty hy-way in the early a.m. 30miles from nowhere. Fix-a-Flat to the rescue. Don't leave home without it.

That was dumb. It is only supposed to be a temp fix. You are lucky nothing bad happend to youi or somebody else. Anyways, that stuff will throw off the balance of your wheel (irregular tire wear). Fix a flat sucks, It voids tire warranties, and you are not even supposed to fix a tire after it has that crap put in it. Call a tow truck or put your spare on. Do not be lazy.
