[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 65770, member: 82"] Just how beat up are they? I have had a few bad ones that i put ear muffs on and went at them with a big hammer. Get the sides back into shape then go over them with a grinder with a flap wheel to get rid of any sharp and high bits. They don't need to be spot on round, as long as it's an even flatness for the tyre to seal on, that's all you need. I give them a good couple of coats of paint too, this helps seal them even more as you get a nice smooth finish. I have yet to have one that didn't seal right after doing this. I'd use the tyre sealant as a last resort, a tube is a better option as you won't have a big mess when you need a new tyre. [/QUOTE]
