Come in to S Technic tomorrow and I'll do it while you wait.

Do not use that Tyre Inflator gas!!, I used a similar product a few years ago to make it to the nearest Tyre fitter( near work).It got me there but when they fixed the problem( was a torn valve stem) they didn't wash off the residue from that gas before fitting the tyre back on.

Those Inflator gasses contain Amonia and it ate away at my rim and completely ruined it!, it was only discovered after I got new tyres on the rear. The one I used was in an orange can called " THE PUMP"

This is what it did to my wheel, had a big shitfight with distributor of this product but got me nowhere, I had to get it professionally ground and welded back up, then sold the wheels off.

holy crap!!!!

chrome rims LOL

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Chrome rim's = the dizzy heights of wheel fashion ummmmmm BACK in the day :P

update; took to stechnic, turned out to be a tiny screw , didnt puncture anything, so no need to plug up anything. better to be safe than sorry

Lucky it didn't go through, although central punctures are the best puncture to get if you have to get one!

Tyre inflation/sealer goop is awful stuff to work with, will make whoever is repairing the tyre hate you for using it... makes a huge mess of the rims (which doesn't usually get cleaned up internally, which can result in what was seen above) and can mess with the surface where the plug gets glued onto. If you can, swap on the spare, don't remove the screw & just take it in as is.

Most pointless thread.
& please don't anybody use that air in a can shit, with or without additives (as above)

If you are really worried, carry a full size spare or two, and install a arb compressor in the engine bay
