Outer Limits 4x4 Board

Anyone tried this stuff?

I saw it in an ad in A4WDMmag

I wonder if it is any good. Might be worth keeping in the kit for a long trip out back.

Not really any good for high speed. As it doesn't dry it is a constantly moving mass inside the tyre which will cause vibrations. Another buggar about the sealant goop for tyres is repairing them. Majority of time they don't seal it properly anyway and then you take it to the tyre shop for repair and they have to clean all that crap out to repair it.... nasty overpowering smell.

blocks 1/4 holes my arse - how big is the tyre valve tube? 1/8 maybe and its 5 times as long.

works a treat in push bike tyres. i wouldnt use it in 4wd tyres though. i think its for small tyres only

Agreed, works well on a mountain bike etc.....

I happen to ride MTBs as well, but I imagine it would be a lot of extra weight. And then theres the wheel balence as well absorbing kinetic engergy (making you need to pedal harder).

They have separate products for lightweight bike tyre options but I dunno. If you're doing a MTB race and you get a puncture, you will probly still need to hop off and pump up from the original leak. Don't want to have to pedal if your tyres gone soft.

Spose it my get your truck home if you've used up eveything else. Although I reckon you can use those licorice sticks (whatever you call them) for that.

also, if you gotta take the valve core out, aren't your tyres gonna completely deflate? meaning you gotta pump the thing up from empty? Could be there for quite some time with the air compressor they supply in their KIT. Ya'd wanna leave the motor running

Tried using it on a dirt bike , and it does Sweet Fuc* All .

yer there was a guy at the local 4wd show and he had a jockey wheels tyre
with about 15 psi in it

and a lever with a nail on it and you pull the lever to puncher the tyre

he recons he put 1/4 a bottle in, it stopped the leaks

but i was like but on your car/4wd your putting 1.5 of the stuff in a tyre more than 3 times that size

so going on that i got think it would work 100%


it may slow the leak enough to get your self out of trouble

Most tubeless tyres self seal with a nail/screw pucture anyway. On outback trips you can bung a nylon cord repair as a temporary fix and these can be repaired a lot easier than having to clean all the goop out.
Simply put.... from a tyre fitters perspective, 99% of the time the goop doesn't work, it causes vibrations and is a PITA to have to clean the crap out before doing a puncture. The smell is so overpowering it almost knocks you off your feet!!

yep have used it,kids pushbikes and jockey wheels.works well for those applcations
