22" chrome wheel leaks

[homesick]

My Indi shop has done it to two of the 4 22” rims. Just one left. Dealing with 3 leakers was nutz.

All my TPMS are working now and having just that one slow leak is no biggie because I can fill it when fueling up.

Are they all pretty recent? Has he estimated how long he expects them to last?

Are you gonna do a preemptive repair on the fourth one?

About 3 Mo ago. My trucks in the shop right now so I should probably have em do it. It’s feast of famine for being busy there. I try to limit the “Oh, one more thing repairs” called in later.

Any estimated repair duration?

It’s a permanent repair until the tire comes off. When my TPMS began to fail I forgot to have them add bead sealant after installing the new modules.

It wasn’t until a few months ago I remembered to have them break the beads and apply the sealant again.

Oh. I thought you were going full boat on the repair, like in the YT video you linked.

I already tried the sealant, and got about 2 weeks out of it.

Yes, Indi shop does it like the YT vid and it fixes it until the next tire is installed.

Cool, thanks.
