After cleaning it up like you did I have had good luck with just using grease.

[@SweetProjectCars]

Ted Elliott we tried that many times and they only held for us about a year

[@superque4]

What's that you call 99%? Alcohol?

[@JamesSmith-jq2jc]

NICE. If your tire was balanced before doing this, and or you break both beads, mark the tire to rim. When you go to air it up, line up those marks and you'll keep it in balance.

[@SweetProjectCars]

[@Daniel_Antonio_Arellano782]

It was the common way of breaking those beads back in the day. We would balance the tires ourselves also. We would use an old axle to spin the tire. Mike has a lot of knowledge in all these things.

[@niceguy2171]

Good stuff as usual. Although unfortunately had to learn this one previously myself, as new sets of tires were coming back from the 'modern' tire shops with bead leaks..in fact I took my daily driver vehicle back in June for a set a week old, and they rewarded me by scratching the heck out of my rim, and leaving a bead leak! So I do them myself, and use the same technique except for using a fresh steel wool for the rim smoothing. But thanks for showing everyone this.

Had the problem on a 2006 Honda Accord with aluminum rims, took it to Discount tire (bought the tires there about 3 years before) and they did what you did, but took off the tires (2) used air tools to clean up. Never had a problem, and they did it for free! Thanks! Jim PS......best oil......the one that’s synthetic, meets the SN or SN plus rating and is on sale! The above 4cyl. car went to 170,000 miles before I sold it (with no problems, what so ever), oil changes every 6,000 miles. Trans oil changes with Honda fluid every 30,000 miles. This car went over 200,000 miles before it was totaled on black ice.

[@SweetProjectCars]

Thank you for watching and sharing Jim! Hope you have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC

[@Neuron43]

It's a good idea to keep a ratchet strap in your vehicle for when the bead won't seat. Wrap the strap around the perimeter of the tire and crank until the bead gets as close to the rim as possible. Works best if the core is removed during this process to inject a larger volume of air that forces the bead toward the rim. Once the bead is set, reinstall the core and inflate to correct pressure. Keep fingers away from bead during inflation!

[@SweetProjectCars]

Thank you for sharing this we’ve used this method many many times and it works great especially on skid steer tires

[@jack002tuber]

Very good advice

[@D21403]

[@stevecarlson6462]

I can always count on good old Lester to send me home with at least one slow leaker. Now i know why. Heaven forbid the dealer should take the time from their "sudden service" to clean up the rim prior to mounting a tire! Thanks Mike!

[@SweetProjectCars]

LOL, we are well aware of Lester the tire repair man, he gets paid $2.50 an hour and could care less about your tire holding air. :) Thanks for watching and commenting Steve, we appreciate it my friend, hope you have a great week. mad Mike the hammer SPC

Remember to do both inside and outside of tire and rim. A scotch pad on tire bead helps clean, and pure dish soap will also soften the bead to help seal, in case of no bead seal

Thanks again (and again) SPC! Have spent $150 on the left rear tire of my 1/2 ton at shops to stop the slow leak and it is money down the hole as it has only been getting worse, especially during the winter; losing over 10 lbs a weak or more and always getting the low pressure warning at the worst of times. Will get some bead sealer and try this out as soon as it warms up!!

I gotta say I was surprised you didn't repaint the bead. I've had excellent results using Acrylic spray paint as it's UV stable and holds up well even to hammer-on wheel weights. Thanks for all the great videos and advice on car care products!

[@nicholashollow9410]

Tire beads are where I find most of my troubles. Snowblowers, lawn tractors, hand trucks, wheelbarrows, most small rims aren't made for a tubeless tire but the manufacturers don't seem to care. So I pop the bead and glue the bead on to ensure it stays put and wont leak.

Man, you never disappoint with the content. My vote for oil goes to Quaker State Ultimate Durability Synthetic. Has a top rated film strength and is the only oil that makes my motorcycle run so quiet I had to double check it. This is coming from a former Mobil 1 guy.

[@cessealbeach]

My dads 2023 Silverado , had a leak i couldnt find, it would leak upto 30 and not leak , I tried soap water, changing valve stem etc, my dad takes the truck to the dealership, they recommended a new tire , dad approves after $490 got new tire. I told my dad to bring the old tire home, i forgot about reseating the bead, so i removed a good tire from his truck , took it to a tire shop had them swap with the tire that was replaced with new. Told to tire shop to check for leaks, they said no leak , Installed it, No issues. Chevy Dealer was a Chief and most of them are. Thanks for the tip

Had this problem after new tires were installed. Kept having to add air ever week and a half or so. Took back to tire shop to get oil changed and told them to check a see why tire would need air so often. Charged 20 bucks to clean oxidation off wheel. Question is if the tire shops know this is a problem why were they not cleaned as part of process when installing new tires? The rubber valve stems should be replaced when new tires are put on also.

[@jazzfreek54]

I vote Amsoil. They have there tiers and I have used the top line offering (green cap) for a very long time with never a problem. Out is also one of the very few that is a real synthetic, unlike Mobil 1 that dropped their real synthetic oil years ago. If it says "full synthetic" it is actually made from crude. Amsoil is one of the few Group 4 oils (real synthetic) and most of the rest are Group 3, engineered crude oil. For those who don't believe it, check it out. Red Line is another real synthetic but I've never used it. The reason they can claim Group 3 oils are synthetic when they're not is due to a court ruling in a case between Castrol and Mobil. Once again, the consumer gets screwed.

[@ke6bnl]

bead sealer is SWEET the trick to seal the bead and it does not make the tire any harder to get off

[@ScotWalt858]

Awesome tip right there!! Bead sealer, wow. Never knew about that. I have issues with 2 wheeled hand truck tires losing air all the time. Have to hit them with a little WD40 and a match to get them to seal up. Now I know!! Bead sealer. I have a feeling my hand truck tire issues were just solved!! Thanks much!!

[@superque4]

Don't forget to check the tread area for nails/screws. That's the cause of your slow leaks 99% of the time.

[@SweetProjectCars]

superque4 you are correct thats why you spray the entire tire down with warm soapy water

[@PFG888]

Thanks for the video! @6:00 - When you say 99%, you mean 99% iso alcohol right? @7:44 - Just wondering if you only need to do bead sealer on one side or did you do the other side off camera?

Leaks that reveal themselves with bubbles are easy. The tough rim leaks are positional; they may not leak for weeks and leak only when the tire is parked in a certain position and can go completely flat in an hour or two.

Thanks for another great and helpful video!! Nice, easy repair that almost anyone can do.

[@shanequinn8356]

I love these simple fixes so great video. The wheel sometimes stands up when you drive on the sidewall so place a block of wood under the other side of the opposite sidewall. This helps push the other side bead into the mid groove at the same time so both beads can break together. Tyre higher so drive on over a ramp board. If the tyre is tight on the bead then deflate and spray detergent water in thru the valve stem to lube the bead from the back

[@LosPeregrinos51]

If you haven't got a supa--dupa-hi-pressure air line you can remake the bead by looping a noose of 1/2 inch rope around the tread. Stick a pry bar in between rope and tire and twist. As the rope corkscrews up it'll squeeze the tread down and the walls will go out then pump like crazy. If you haven't got any bead sealer then once you've reinflated the wheel run a bead of clear, flexible silicone from a caulking gun around the joint and smooth off with a wet finger. Did this on my daughter's car as a "temporary" fix. Three years later when she went in to get new tires it was still holding!

Great video, Sweet Projects Cars! I have been looking for an easy way to break the bead on my 2004 Denali tires, so I can replace the Autel 315MHz MX-Sensor Wireless Programmable Universal TPMS Sensor on each tire. This will do the trick. Saved me all kinds of money on tools I didn't need. Many thanks!

[@JB-jo1pf]

THANKS again for all your informative videos. I would add that you need a fairly robust air compressor that has enough volume/pressure to start the bead to seal on the rim. I would also recommend leaving the valve core out until the bead is fully seated and then screwing it in as it will allow much more air to flow through the valve stem. It can be easily installed with the air escaping out of the stem or you can let all of the air out once the bead has fully seated.

[@SweetProjectCars]

J B they seal right back up if the job is done the same day

i'm 68 live in minnesota dealing with this problem all my life, i bought a manual tire changer and a sand blaster, i remove the tire and wire brush the area of the tire that seals, clean the inside of the tire, sand blast the area of the rim that seals, clean, and paint with rust-oleum, let cure overnight and remount, now it is worry free.

the absolute worst offenders for rim corrosion have got to be any Chrysler/Dodge alloy (especially the 18-20" truck variety). I'm not sure what's in that alloy that corrodes more than anything else on the planet but grinding/bead sealing seems to be the only fix). The alloy stems on the pressure monitors are made of the same junk it seems. Thanks for the great videos!

I used needle nose pliers and folded sand paper to remove the white residue on the tire.

Do this yourself "If no tire places are open". Let's just be real. We are doing this ourselves because we don't want to pay $20 for something we can do ourselves. Maybe we enjoy doing it ourselves. Maybe we don't have $20.

[@SweetProjectCars]

you got it some people just like DIY

$20 I WISH! My local tire shop charged me two kidneys and a first born to pull all 4, scrub them down and put them back on. They neglected to mention that they were going to charge a pull off rim charge, and a put on rim charge, and then a rebalance charge x4 tires. They only quoted me a $ amount to scrub the rims down to which I agreed. TOTALLY SHAFTED!

[@MikeSmith-nu9wt]

Doing it ourself cause the tire shops have a bad turn over rate , so every time its a new guy learning on your dime

[@jamesrichardson771]

It cost me 42 bucks💸 2 weeks after" I bought new tires on my little f -150 .. 900 dollar tires ...

[@1111CLICKHERE1111]

Happened to me EXACTLY on the Holidays indeed. Slow Leak, then Flat. Wouldn't air up. AAA couldn't inflate it either. No one thought to JACK UP the SUV first, then inflate.. and MAGIC. Anyway, slow leak was the reason.
