BX Tires going flat

   / BX Tires going flat #41  
It might be a good idea to foam fill both tires on the same axle....and yes, properly foam filling the tires WILL be the solution.

Had my BX tires foam filled over a decade ago (maybe 15 years ago). Happy camper.

I am. Just had the flat off the tractor in the truck. First time I was looking for a business that did this met a dead end. Was 'pumped' when I ran into this tire dealer that was ready to help.

Hi all,

it's been almost a year since I started this thread. Just wanted to let you all know what was going on.
I bought some of this stuff called TireJect.

I took the wheels off, pulled the valves and injected this stuff. I rolled the tire, and flipped it around to coat the inside.
Put the valves back in and aired it up.

Have not had one problem since. Oh by the way it was leaking around the rim. FIXED!

Thanks
Dave

Yup, that stuff works for most minor leaks. I have R4 tires on my B2910, and had a couple of leaks in the front tires, due to running over thorns. I bought some "Slime"...which is probably the same stuff you used, and treated the front tires 3 or 4 years ago, and they haven't lost any air yet. The rears have held up well, but they have heavier and deeper tread.

The hard turning and heavy loader work required me to tube them. No issues since.
