After ordering a tractor to clear cedar and bush in the Texas hill country I thought it would be nice to have this kit available in place of the old plugs. On the second day I took a Mesquite Spike. Repairs carried out on site - quick and easy. Although the tractor tire was so stiff that I literally had to puncture the tire with a feeler gauge, it worked as expected. (I wonder if the probe was that hard to get through, how did that mesquite tip get through? - but oh well.)
