    YOU PEOPLE who don't know what a tire plug is are making me feel old, and I'm "only" 45. It's the way tires were always repaired up until about 20 years ago. Tire shop/gas station would charge you $5-10 and you were there for all of about 10 mins.

    I only ever buy 4 tires. Still have the factory spare. Only had 3 punctures since buying the truck in 2014 but have always been able to plug it and air it up with the compressor I keep in the cab. I find it quicker and easier to plug than to put the spare on. ARB makes a nice sturdy tire repair kit; the cheaper ones are easy to bend/break, especially with beefier tires. I've got Viair's 88p and it's gotten me and others out of trouble plenty of times.

    im going to get one of these i think.

    https://ironman4x4america.com/recovery-equipment/airplugger-compact-tire-repair-kit/

    ive one of the ARB style kits but think this smaller version would be able to be stuffed in the door pocket, or the trail bag, or even in with the roadside jack baggy

    That's a nice little compact kit. That looks like it might take a minute or so to change from the reamer bit to the plugger plunger, time where your tire will be bleeding air. Also, for $15 I'd be concerned with how durable those bits are; they can be pretty easy to bend, particularly with beefier tires. Neither are a huge deal, just some things to consider.

    Does anyone have the new Falken Wildpeak A/T4W?what do u think of the tire? I'm going to Discount Tires to order my new shoes, I am sticking with 4 tire & 4 rims, I already have Morrflate air compressor, and someone posted that ARB tire kit, I just ordered that. Here is my quote for my set up I'm buying. My truck is stocked no lift or suspension....

    Thank you for your consideration! That is a nice wheel and tire package. If you have mud flaps you may need to trim a little or remove them to be sure you don't have rubbing. Looking forward to some pics after your install.

    Definitely should have one (I do) but is pretty worthless if you cut the sidewall.

    I like having a full size 5th with a matching wheel. I do my own 5 tire rotations and like the fact that if I do really tear up a tire on a trail I'm good to go with the spare.

    wrong, i have used on sidewall damage before, you can use 2 or 3 plugs and it will slow down and sometimes stop the leak

    Depends on how bad the sidewall damage is. The last sidewall damage I had was really bad and no amount of plugs was going to stop it. Having a full size spare that was plug and play was what saved the day.

    It's all levels of insurance and where you plan on going and what size tires you have:

    Basic - stock spare
    Mid - stock spare and tire plug kit
    High - full size spare on steelie and tire plug kit
    Platinum - full size matching spare on same wheel and tire plug kit
