I need tire help.

When I was riding over the weekend I must have ran over something sharp because one of my Maxxis Razr's got a very small hole in it. What would be the best way to fix this? I have heard that fix-a-flat can eat through your rim.

or you could pop the bead and stick a tube in it.

A Tire plug will do they job

Buy the kit so you have extra for another flat down the road

"Slime" tire sealant also works great and stays liquid to keep you from having flats in the future...and you can get it at Walmart...

It turns out that my dad had a tire plug kit in his work truck so I didn't even have to leave home to get some. I have never dealt with a flat tire other than on a bike before and thats a tube tire so its completly different. The plug is in and its fixed, thanks for the help guys.
