hey guys im having a bit of trouble with my mrs car new rims. we just bought a set of work emotion xd9's for her s15 silvia. (yes i drive a corolla n she drives a silvia i cop it everyday).

the problem is when she turns her steering wheel left when she is moving the rim starts ****** out air. but when she turns the other way nothing happens. i just pumped it up 2 40psi and in 5 mins it went down to 35.

we bought the rims brand new but the tyres (bridgestone potenzas) were second hand with 95% tred. i got the ****s with the shop n i told them they gave me a **** tyre so we bought a brand new one and same deal is happening!

need your help tocau

cheers,

daniel

wheel may be buckled or hairline fracture, take the wheel off and pour some water onto it (where the bead is) see if there are bubbles coming up. if not it may be the valve itself.
