Repair kit for non RF tires

Which repair kit / slime kit do you recommend for non RF tires? I'm switching out my RF but not sure if there are better choices other than the slime brand.

Also, when the slime is injected into the tire, is there a risk of messing up the wheels / TPMS?

I just bought a can full of spray goop at my local auto supply store..I am not aware of any long term impact on tires or specifically wheels if it needs to be used, but I guess I will find out..The RF's had to go, I had ruined 3 of them in 18 months with normal day to day driving and had had enough..The goop and a AAA membership will be enough.

I have a slime kit but also have one of these:
Amazon Amazon

I ran over a nail on the highway and had a fast leak. I used the Dynaplug, inserted 2 plugs ... and the tire's been good for the past 2 winters (hole was about 1/3 of the way from the outside of the tread).
