OK, After a flat tire...

So, let's say you have a flat tire and you use that tire repair stuff-in-a can to fix it. Do you have any problems with tire balancing afterwards? Do you have to rebalance and does it work ok? Just curious.

Not sure, I think it would affect balance. I would want to dismount tire and clean up the mess anyway.

the stuff is just to get you home. after that, you're supposed to replace the tire.

repairing a tire basically ruins it, it loses its speed rating/etc etc
