problem with Rawhides

If I were you I'd be wanting to know where the leak is. Blow the tire up to 10 psi and use soapy water all over the tire or submerge it in water. Once you know were the leak is you should be able to fix it.

Did you put the slime in, and then drive IMMEDIATELY to spread it out throughout the tire? I put it in mine, and don't have the vibration.

I sprayed soapy water on the bead and it's leaking in a couple different spots so I know for sure it's the bead. And this is after 2 times to 2 different tire shops(that work w/ ATV tires) and having them apply bead sealer. A friend recommended using the Slime-type product from Highlifter.com. Slime supposedly isn't for bead leaks(although I know people have used it for that), but the Highlifter stuff is. We'll see how it works.

slime is great stuff. I "slimed" all 4 tires on my machine when 1 tire started losing air regularly about 18 months ago. I have not added air to these tires once in the last 18 months and have put them thru 700 very tough miles since then. BigBadScrambler is right though, higher speeds will cause a vibration. I also notice the vibration just over 40 mph. Most of my miles are below 40 mph so it is no big deal to me. The "Slime" container says it is only to be used in tires that will not exceed 45 mph.
