Default 750 Ripped Up NY

Thanks for the input everyone.

I think I will call ITP and see about getting another set of ATR's. This is my second set already, my first set wouldn't hold air on brand new OMF beadlocks. They sent me another set which still had one leaker. I had to cut little dimples off inside of bead and apply blue formagasket around the bead. It still leaks alittle! Has anyone had any problems like this? My dealer has a leaker also on his quad.

Or maybe just try another tire if they don't agree!

Meanwhile I will check my front end over and see if I can find anything else.

If you have a good atv jack and safe place to do it..... put it up on jack and open her up.

Easy to see if tires are out of round or balance. point it towards someones house in case it comes off jack...lol

I had a set of Sand Shark paddles that would not hold air. Stopped in a small town at a small tire shop. He broke them down and put a layer of grease from a grease gun on both sides of the rims and it stopped the leaks. Said he does it all the time on regular truck tires. FYI.

I would use silicone rather than grease, as ATV tires are low pressure tires... Truck tires aren't... greased ATV wheels may spin the tires on the rims, especially with paddles, during climbing, or pulling
