Whats the best tire sealant out there for off road tires? Got into some punji-sticks and poked some holes in the mower tires. Trying to avoid Slime brand if i can.

If you want your tires to be "pokey resistant" then fill em with poly urethane foam (2 part foam).Problem is the pokey things poke holes in the tubes too!

Yes, use tubes.
No, don't use the Slime, et al pseudo-sealants. Most of them will rot the wheels.
No, I don't like the foam. It makes the tires hard; ride goes to hell. On industrial equipment, the tire guys like to cheat with the foam fills; less work for them. The maintenance guys and the budget guys get the whack because the foam filled tires destroy the equipment; first-hand experience from a thirty-year US Steel parts guy.

I’ve been using “Gemplers” brand tire seal in all my equipment, trucks, ATV’s and mower. Made in USA and available from Amazon.
I’ve had great success and it lasts a really long time. I’m in Texas and everything wants to make tires leak, from grass burrs to Mesquite thorns.
