Has anyone used the ride on tire balancing goop? I just put on my roctanes and I had Rocky Mtn. mount them with the ride on stuff inside. Today when I went for a spin (granted it had been sitting in the garage for a week) there was a definite out of balance/flat spot shake coming from one of the rear wheels it felt like. After about a mile or so it went away. Initially I suspected the tires, but being 8 ply radials with 10psi they shouldn't have gotten a flat spot...or at least I didn't think so. Not a huge deal as it went away, just wondered if anyone else had experienced the same.

IF YOUR GOOP NEVER DRIES AND STAYS GOOOOPEY IT WILL PUDDLE IN THE BOTTOM AND WILL CAUSE THE BALANCE ISSUE. AFTER YOU RODE A WHILE IT WENT AWAY SO THIS WILL CONTINUE IN MY OPINION.

Pretty much what I figured and since it's a sealant for punctures as well combined with cold weather here...I guess that answers my question.

I had this happen when I first installed the SLIME. but after a bit it leveled out.

I have never heard of this balancing goop.

I don't run anything in my tires and use 8 ply radial Roctane XD'S even on the little P500 it get flat spots if sitting for a few days. Once you get the tires rolling it goes away within a few minutes.
