Since its introduction this set has been a repeat sell out. We now have a larger inventory in stock for quick delivery. This is a must item for every smart car owner.
Once I've jacked up my smart on the side of the road to take the strain off the flat tire, taken off the flat, what next? Do I walk to the nearest service station with my tire on my back? I thought that the reason smart gave me the flat fix kit was to get me to the service station without having to jack up my car. Right?
I carry a plug repair kit. I have found that every flat I've ever had in the past 20 years has been either a screw or nail in the tire. It's usually a good idea to carry a flat head and phillips screw driver with a pair of pliars. Pull out the nail or screw and use the tire pump that comes with the car and fix the flat permanently right there on the side of the road or where ever you broke down. I've been doing this for years for myself and friends/family. I don't like using Fix-a-flat because of all of the nasty stuff it puts all over the tire and rim. If you get a hole in the sidewall, then having a jack won't help you much because there's no spare tire to put on and you'll still need to tow the vehicle. The jack is very nice to have when you rotate your own tires. I try to avoid going to the dealer as much as possible and maintain my own vehicles. I only go to the dealer when there's a serious issue.
