With the highway miles and weight I run in my truck I don't but then the
comparison is moot anyway since a fix for a pinhole in a good tire compared
to using software to fix a physically dying drive instead of replacement is
way off. Now comparing that to coating a tire with silicone to recover lost
tread instead of buying a new tire is a closer comparison since the dyding
HD is worn out and spinrite is going to attempt to temp fix it without
addressing the mechanical wear and while it might work for a while the owner
will still end up buying a new tire, or HD, whichver the case may be.

Hmmmmmm......... guess you don't use blowout patches either ?
