u guys using beet juice have you ever noticed a bad smell in summer months? tube or no tube? tire supplyer said the alcohol in windwasher and anti freeze eats/weekens rubber.

A tire is a sealed system, if you can smell something, then there is a leak.
I've got Rim Guard, with innner tubes. When putting it into my tire I had a small backfire and ended up with a face full of the stuff. Ya it smells bad, but washes off with water and is non-toxic. Can imangine getting CaCl in my eyes.

so no reports of beet juice smelling unless it escapes the tire. even on hotdays? thats good i was just imagining 90 deg heat and beet juice in my nice new tractor tires permeating right through the tire and just getting disgusting.:duh: thanks for to all
