Default Vision Rims???

When I bought my 4-wheeler I got it with a set of Vision wheels and Swamp Fox tires.I've been having problems keeping air in the tires since I've had these wheels and tires.I get mud in the beads and I have one that always goes flat.I've had it at the tire store like five times and they keep telling me they can't find a hole and it's my tires because their supposed to be on beadlock rims.I have several buddies that have these very same tires without beadlocks and with no problems.I also know others with different tires that say their supposed to be on beadlocks yet they are'nt and they have no porblems.I've been wondering if maybe this is a common problem with these particular rims.They look like they have a real soft edge where the bead goes.I'll try to describe the rims so you will know which ones they are.They have like 4 wide spokes and are pretty deep with imitation beadlock.I've been considering true beadlocks but I figure their pretty high.
By the way I don't ride hard or hit big deep mud holes or anything.It's just my hunting 4-wheeler that occasionally I have to ride over big boulders but I'm afraid I might have one pop off the rim or something.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
JE

How much air pressure are you running? Have you put the entire wheel and tire under water to look for bubbles? You might want to try Slime or similar tire sealer.

The tires say to run a max of 7psi but their still soft at 7psi and they act like they are going to come off when I have to climb rocks.I keep 10psi in them but I don't like to because it rides rougher.The tire does'nt leak when I hold it under water.It does'nt always leak down either.Sometimes it will be flat nearly every day and then other times it may stay inflated for a week.Usually it leaks down though.Oh and I also had bead sealer put on all my tires the last time I had them at the tire store.I'm thinking of buying some of that green slime and trying it.
