Slow air rim leak 2016 22 inch polished rim

[rockerking]

I am having a problem stopping a slow rim leak on one of the polished 22" rims on my 2016 Tahoe. I had a Firestone store take the tire off the rim, clean the bead surface and remount with a new pressure valve but that only worked for a few months, now the problem is back. Has anybody found a long term fix for this kine of problem?

Gotta first pinpoint precisely where the leak is coming from. I'd take the wheel off the truck and hit it with soapy water all the way around the tire, and everywhere you can access on the rim. I'm with Trey - I'll bet you'll find a hairline crack in the rim.

I will give that a try, thanks for the tip
