This was mentioned a while back. Where's the best place in / near / between San Antonio and Victoria to get some front tractor tires foamed? TIA.

Southern Tire Mart or Solideal On-site Services

I used Beasley tire in San Antonio for my front tractor tires about 2 years ago

Check out liquid tube. Superior to standard tire slime and they say provides a better ride than tires that are foamed. We have it in all 4 tires and have yet to have a flat in rough rock, pear, and mesquite. We used their liquid ballast in the rear two tires. Happy w the seal, ride, and ballast.

Genco in Wharton

Any Southern Tire Mart. New Braunfels has one as does Corpus and Alice. Probably one in Victoria.

Sorry its Gensco in Wharton.

I used to be a rep for them and they are the real deal. Great stuff.

Hot damn - thank you! I was about to get some tires foam filled. This looks much better.

I will 2nd this. All our tires of Ag tractors, Case 580 D and Skid Steer use this. I cleared 30 acres of honey locust and used the skid steer for pulling and the Case for stacking and grappling. Not one flat or low tire. Quite amazing stuff.

I'll do some reading on this. Thank you!

In general, what is effect of foam in terms of ride/durability of the front tires?

Will ride significantly rougher, however is flat proof. The only thing that can still put you out of service is slicing the tire open on a rock or other sharp object.

I can't believe more folks don't know about them. A little bit of advertising and their business would take off. Maybe they are happy w their production and business model though.

Their product is amazing. Takes a little math to figure out how much you need and a pump to get it in the tire, but after that you're good to go, essentially for the life of the tire. And it doesn't rust your rims or dry out like slime can. We have pushed our tractor over some punishing stuff spraying mesquite and pear. Have seen a few leaks seal off instantly.

Small company with a cash flow problem. They were one of about 45 different companies that I repped for and I think they are out of Florida. It's been years now.

Part of their company was bought out and came up with a different solution focused on retail. Make sure you get the industrial/farm/ag stuff. Blue and white bottle, not the orange one.

This looks interesting .. some type of poly urethane formulation I would suspect, have to look into this for the tractor

here is another option, better ride than foam filled.

I have a dodge ram with chrome 20" rims that came with it when I bough it used. One of my wheels has some sort of leak that is not related to the tire itself. Would it be inadvisable to try this stuff on it?

Not recommended for highway speeds. Some people put in their trailers, but I don't think in your truck would be good unless it's farm only.

Lawless beat me to it - this is my understanding as well.
