Tire Sealant
Does anyone use a tire sealant as a preventative measure? If so what do you recommend? I have access to 100 acres but no telling whats there just waiting to puncture my tires... Thanks............BG

I take some stuff called Slime if I get a flat I put some in and air up the tire and I am good to go. I dont know if it will keep you from getting a flat.

I use Puncture Control Compound (PCC) made by the Hollander Corporation. Really great stuff. Sold a lot of it where I used to work. Also, Slime is really popular, but I don't have any experience with it.
Also, if you're looking for EXCELLENT cleaners... they have awesome stuff. Their Cyclone One is incredible. I use it for everything.

Don't you feel any vibration or difference while riding?

It can actually help to "balance" your tires. Once you put it in and ride for a bit, it coats the inside of your tires. Any excess will end up going to wherever the tire needs more weight to balance it, due to the force of the spinning tire.
They actually make balancing products for motorcycles that use tiny little beads you put in the tires. When the bike is going down the road, the beads settle into whatever area they need to be in to counter the tire being unbalanced. It's kinda cool. Wish I could run it in my tires, but I have tubes, and it's only recommended for tubeless. I've also heard of people putting a tablespoon of antifreeze in their tires to create the same effect.
