What's the best type of repair kit to carry for ATV tires when you're going farther off road?

I carry two, one from Princess Auto that's under 10 bucks its a plug type with tool to push in and the other is a mushroom plug that pushes in and a some CO2 cartridges that's better for a motorcycle tire. Both work well for punctures. I use a bicycle air pump and carry a ratchet strap to keep bead of tire in contact with the rim of the wheel.

I carry a plug kit as mentioned above. it contains plug strips, glue, reaming tool and tool to push in the plugs. I have installed a 12v power point on my quad and carry a small electric pump. I have used this kit several times on the trails and it works great.

I run a tire sealant in my tires that works wonders on pluggable holes without plugging

Buy some 6-ply tires.

Plugs and a small pump work pretty good as noted above.

Had a buddy that packed a tube for years. When he finally needed to use it, we couldn't get the tire off the bead (we tried everything we could, it was glued on there)
