Slime 'Spair Tire' or Conti Comfort kits?

[Anonymous]

Eurocarparts has a genuine Slime/ Compressor kkit new for £24.99. Good price for new in their sale.

This was the kit I was looking at but it's not available in the shops, only online.

My only reservation with the Slime kit is the 2 step operation instead of the Contis all in one. No difference to me but I want it as easy as poss for the wife.

The tyre repair kit doesn't look 'roadside' friendly IMHO

too be fair he's really making hard work of that,once found the hole can be plugged in around 3 minutes

It would seem you also have to remove the valve core before putting the Slime in. That's just asking for trouble. I can see it now: she can't get the core out/drops the core in the dark/can't get the core back in etc. Guess I'll have to get her the Conti & have the cheapo Slime myself.

No matter what was in the car SWIMBO would not ever go near a flat tyre :lol:

It would be a phone home, never noticed or call me then the AA.

She is not in the decision process from that point of view.
