DON"T Slime it. Any tire that runs at road speed will be thrown out of balance with that product. I bought a real nice Olds 98 last year. The owner sold it cheap as he said the front end was shot and needed ball joints. He had it aligned and all of the tie rods replaced and had the tires balanced. You still could not drive it above forty without it shaking you out of the car. Brought it home and the son checked the front end out on his frame machine. It was all fine. Pulled the tires off and checked them for broken belts, checked fine. Went to balance them and his balancer went nuts. Would not read any weight the same twice in a row. Removed a tire and found the slime. Washed it out of all four tire and checked them all for leaks, found none. Balanced the tire and it drives like a dream. Called the old owner and asked him about the slime. The car had aluminum rims and they would leak around the beads as he drove it very little. He saw Slime in the local TSC and put it in the tires. Cost him almost two thousand dollars on repairs and a beating on resale.
