    Yeah, kinda fuck those things. I would not be at all surprised if there were still a ring of them in the pavement at Palmer later this month from where I set down a tire last month that was unfortunate enough to be filled with them.

    Can you change truck tires with zip ties?

    Yes, but you have to upgrade your equipment: Stainless Steel Cable Ties - 14" S-13605 - Uline

    If you put the beads in, THEN add the green slime, you'll never have to change a tire again. Nor will you need to after your tire guy gets done with you.
