Sliming a Tire Part 2
#1
Sorry i didnt clarify my first post clearly enough
i have a tire that leaks from around the bead
i always hear of people who slime the tires to keep the bead from leaking (even Rocky Mountain does this in there tire/wheel kits)
i was wonder how ud slime a tire for leaks around the bead or is it the same as a regular puncture hole
Thanks

i did it the same way, just put it in the already mounted tire and go. we did it on our t.blazer when i replaced stock tires w/ m.lites and the bead leaked as yours and took off cap squeezed slime in and refilled w/ air rode and finshed.

My dad had the same problem... He slimed and also used a rubber mallet on the rim near the leak... worked like a charm... Just remove the stem, squeeze the slime in, replace stem, and over-inflate. Ride (moderately) for about 10-15 min. Make sure you turn both ways several times to force tire against rim. Reduce air pressure...
