PassionFord Post Whore!!
my friends alloys had corroded on the inside edge, and his tires always used to go down over a few days
get it fixed, as often he'd forget and get a flat as the tyre would get ripped off the sidewall under cornering, then he'd have to buy a whole new tyre, which on 19's isnt cheap

If you use Ultraseal, as I do, you don't get ANY leak at all not even 1psi over a year!!
You also get more miles out of your tyres, no punctures, no problems, I have a friend who does the ring on a R1 with this stuff.
It is a permanent fix to any puncture you may get with a nail etc not a crappy get you home piece of engineering, I have in the past had a 8mm bolt hole sealed by this stuff, the tyre lost 1 1/2psi through this.

No tyre fitter has ever mentioned anything, they don't even notice, it forms a semi hard layer inside the tyre, no fumes no nothing, is also water soluble, and not even poisonous if you eat it, won't do your tummy much good but not going to make you seriously ill or anything.
It is used in NI and in a lot of the worlds presedential type cars, and if you run over a stinger, you don't even notice.
It is permanent, ans seals any amount of holes, I have seen a demo with 30 6mm holes put in the tyre and it lost 3 psi, and sealed within 5 seconds of each hole being made.

nb the last puncture I had fixed was Ł15 or so, bloody rip off.

if it's an alloy, it might have gone porous and the air is leaking thorugh the alloy itself
i've got a 3 like that on a car at the moment, after a week with a brand new tyre and that gunk they put on to make sure it stayed sealed it lost 20psi

Take the wheel off and get a bowl of water with washing up liquid in it and sponge the tyre and wheel down and if there are any leaks even tiny ones the washing up liquid will make bubbles, at least then you can sorce the problem and get it fixed
