    OK Heres my 2 cents worth. NEVER USE FIX A FLAT UNLESS ITS AN EXTREME EMERGENCY!!!! I say this because of several reasons:
    1: It WILL throw off your balance (liquids cant be spin balanced)
    2: It WILL eat the inside of your tire AND rim (fix a flat is VERY corrosive)
    3: If you absolutely HAVE to use it, PLEASE tell the tire tech BEFORE he touchs the wheel. Fix a flat under certain conditions is explosive!!!! I have seen cigarette ashes accidently dropped into a f-a-f tire and the resulting fireball, not pretty. I have also had f-a-f "pop" in my face. No fireball (thank god) but still a rather nasty blast of hot, sour, sickening air right to the face is not a good way to make friends
    Tuning a car is full of compromises. You must decide if you are willing to give up either reliability, performance, or a whole load of cash. Also remember that repairs will seem to come up much more often as you strive for even more performance
