Do I have had a problem with my front left tire on my craftsman. There is a bunch of little pin holes inside the tread. Have any of you guys used slime tubes for anything? Or should I just buy a regular tube?

I used stuff called green slime on a go kart tire before. It worked really good and patched the hole up.

Slime works very good the down side is when it's time for a new tire your most likely going to have to replace the rim ( wheel ) and as we all know you wear the front tires out 2 or 3 times before the backs.
I would go with the tube

Yeah, the slime does make a mess of the rim.

I have seen a tube at home depot that was made by Green Slime and t would patch itself if it got punctured. You could see if you ca find the right size in one of those.

I repaired a rear tire with one on one of my lawn tractors. It worked out well and the tube was of good quality. :thumbsup:
