This is not a commercial endorsement...
When I got my 92 BMW GSPD on/off road bike I realized the potential for tire punctures would be greater than before. I found Ride-On Tire Sealant (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qi7VLRqX-Sk). Amount needed is based on tire size so I ordered for my bike having just installed new tires. I think it cost me around $30. I've had no flats and the tires have not needed balancing since 2013. Can that be solely due to this product....who knows. It has made me more confident on and off the road.
I wondered about the "big tire use" and found the have a "commercial high speed" (https://www.ride-onshop.com/Products-Commercial_High_Speed_1.html) application and sell 5-55 gallon pails. I haven't take the time to research how much would be needed or the cost.
Has anyone heard of this or similar products used for commercial/RV use?
Thanks

I've owned a trucking company for 20 years and started driving rigs 20 years before that. I wouldn't put that or any other "slime" in my commercial equipment tires. Most tire repair facilities wont repair a tire that has slime in it, including my shop. Me personally I wouldn't put it in a golf cart or lawn mower tire either unless I planned to THROW AWAY THE WHEEL when ever I had to address the leaking tire by breaking it down and the day will come when you will have to.. I'm refering to "slime". I'm assuming this product works very similar to slime, if not then someone correct me, until then the only thing I put in our tires is air.
I wouldn't put Slime in my coach or truck either, but it works very well in my bike, riding mower and wheel barrow. It is not flammable and is water soluble. The weather checks on my garden tractor leaked like a sieve and the slime is working fine. When I break a tire down with Slime in it I rinse it with water and you can't tell it was even there.
Slime not only coats the inside of the tire but the wheel also. Tire shops hate it. As Dub says "air only." Reading between the lines, I see a hope to feel good against the possibility of getting something in the tire and as a reason not to have to carry a spare.
My advice is to carry a spare tire and the tools to change it. Call road service if you can't physically change the wheel.

Very few new cars have a spare tire or even a place to put one. They either have run flat tires, or a mobility kit that consists of a bottle of sealant and an air compressor that plugs in to a power outlet. I had a flat on my Chevy SSR. It turned out the screw was too close to the sidewall for the tire to be repaired, but the sealant inside the tire looked like it could be easily be washed out.
It looks like Amazon has it for $22 a tire, but you need to buy the 5 gallon bucket that's 16 tires worth.
