Ballast Rim Guard and punctures

   / Rim Guard and punctures #31  
If using Rim Guard, can tire be plugged and have it hold? Currently the Ag tires on a machine I bought used are plugged. Maybe a newbie mistake, but I never thought to check, or ask. Anyway, after 2 years of use, still holding.

But, am considering loading tires. Local shop only does calcium with inner tubes. So looking at Rim Guard. Can a tire be safely plugged when filled with Rim Guard?

In short, yes. On My TYM the dealer filled all 4 tires with Rimguard. He would not sell a tractor w/loader without it..Twice I had large nails cause a front-tire leak, and successfully plugged the holes using an el-cheap plug kit. Tires are still leak-free 4 years later.

My Branson has WW fluid in the rears. Dealer added upon purchase.

How about RV anti-freeze? It's Water, Propylene Glycol, Glycerin, and rust inhibitors. It's odorless, non-toxic, non-staining.

I wondered the same thing. I’m not sure but I think it’s more expensive than windshield washer.
