You have to clean the rim and the tire ,,Often there is grit embedded in the tire .jthe tire is most often the cause..Just find where the leak is ,it can be very difficult to stop a leak of this type,I recently encountered this on the latest fiero I purchased,use very fine sand paper, both surface must be smooooooth.this is a very common problem.. when you mount the tire check the bead all the way around,there is a rim mark all the way around the tire,, use water to locate leak,dry and mark..you do not have to dismount the tire..to separate wheel & tire, a couple of motorcycle tire irons excell at this!! find the leak or leaks force the tire away from the rim and place plywood or plastic between rim and tire to hold it out enough so you can clean tire area at leaks ,, take your time and do it right the first time(hmmmwonder who didn,t) feel the tire for grit.. clean with dish washing detergent,you must be thorough the first time..the grit is difficult to remove,, try not to break the bead but if you do or you dismount tire,use a rope to tighten down on tire surface ,squeeze it,so you can expand bead to go over rim lip.. this is a job that can add new vocabulary, so try not to break bead completely
