dumb question about beadlocks

[shane071489]

ok i have some itp beadlocks that will hold air for a few days then thats it and their flat again ive always been told beadlocks dont hold air and then i read somewhere that a guy was talking about him always holding air no problem is there a trick to it or do i just get stuck with flat *** tires haha :devil:

The first thing is sop them down with soppy water and see where the leak is. It might not have anything to do with the bead locks.:cool:

Take the bead lock ring off and clean everything. The back of the ring, both sides of the tire and the face of the rim all need to be clean.
Most of the time when bead locks leak they are packed with sand.

Mine are 3 years old and still hold air for months at a time.
