I removed the Tire Inflation kit from the trunk of my 2019 GT350 to make room for more essential things.The inflation device has an expiration date from 2024.
Has anyone ever used their kit in an emergency flat situation? I would think that if a tire blew out on a road trip the success of this type of device would be questionable.

I am thinking about purchasing a regular spare tire kit for long trips as a solid replacement solution.Otherwise AAA would be another option.

Personally, I have a spare AND a compressor.

If my spare is down on air after being in the trunk for years, I can air it up.

If I find a puncture that leaks slow I can air up that tire so I can get to the tire shop or a more convenient place, instead of futzing with it on the spot.

Those flat repair compressors are perfect for my use. Small enough to lose little space, big enough for the what I will need it to do. I dont use the slime, just the compressor.
