Dawn dish soap time or tube it? New slick, 2 good leaks out the sidewall, will lose 5 psi an hour or so.

Thanks!

5 psi in an hour out of the sidewall on a new set?

I would be looking into getting that replaced Slant.

Never seen a new set leak like that. Soap isn't going to fix it either.

The dealer is Chicago Connection. I've been buying parts from Bill for 25 years. It's really nice to have a local speed shop.

I’m glad they took care of you. Those tires had to be junk leaking 5 pounds an hour. I’ve never seen a tire leak 5 pounds a week
