    It didn't come with any instructions. Does anybody have any idea how to use it?

    Thanks

    plugs will work well on 6 ply tires, questionable on 4 ply. I assume you are running tubeless?

    JimVonBaden has a plugging tutorial on his web site.
    Plugs work great and are easy to install

    I think you would be better off with a small electric compressor rather then CO2 cartages. Likely is would take up less space too.

    Thanks for the link. I was wondering what the glue was for and when/how to use it.
