Darin,
I put a can of fix-a-flat in mine, with the wheel off the car. I flipped and rolled the wheel to get the liquid spread out within. I did this over a period of several days. I had to air it up each day. Then I put the wheel on the car. When the lugs get torqued the wheel halve get compressed. This wheel no longer leaks, as long as its on the car and torqued. When it is removed it has a slow leak. This was done to a rear wheel with a slick mounted. I was getting tired of the slick leaking between races. Also, after the leak was fixed, I broke the bead and removed the excess fix-a-flat liquid from within, otherwise a I would have run into a wheel/tire balance issue.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
