    You can probably get a patch kit from Pep Boys or AutoZone, etc. When you install the tube use libral amounts of tal*** powder on the tube to make it slippery.

    Just buy new tubes. I bought my 5x16 tubes from Coker for like 13 bucks each. Use lots of tal*** powder and mount carefully

    :D
    i agree, and 1 more thing i learned the hard way, make sure there are no stickers or labels inside the tire, the tube will rub against it and wear a hole in the tube after a while. :D
