Didn't use it and by the looks I will stay clear of it. Can't imagine it not moving when the trye wears. Plus if it's hard enough to be screwed in by a screwdriver, imagine what it would sound like when the tyre spins under you. I will stick with the tried and true glued filling.

That’s designed with car tires in mind. I can see how it would be easier to insert as it works as a screw.

I’ve used the string type…which worked well enough to get me home on a cross county trip. I also have the mushroom style. To me, you need a good seal on the inside of the tire. I’m not sure how these accomplish that for a long term fix.
