My car has a flat tyre (managed to get it home though). There is no spare wheel all you get is some pump thing with gel that apparently ruins the tyre. I am in the AA and was wondering of they will sort it out?

FWIW get one of these. I've got one and I've put a decent plug in many a tyre. You don't have to take it off. I've done 20,000 miles on the last plug I put in.Comment

No sure the foam stuff will be good to drive the 40 miles round trip to work? Better WFH and take it to a tyre shop.Originally posted by Sockpuppet View PostPut the foam in the tyre it doesn't ruin it. If you call the AA they'll just tell you to use the foam.
