My tire squeaks for a day then deflates?

Question

I hit a pothole in my car. I am on 18 inch rims with low profile tires. I took my tire to a place two times. They didn't find anyholes, but the guy said he resealed it. Is it the tire or could the rim be messed up somehow?

Answer 1

cracked rim or just a punctured tire get a reliable tire expert..

Answer 2

the guy didnt do a good enough check

Answer 3

Yes there could be a crack in the rim

Answer 4

It needs to be taken off and submerged in water. If it is leaking you will see bubbles.

Answer 5

In hitting the pothole you could have damaged the rim and the tyre is seating out of line and slowly deflating, I think you may have to bite the bullet here and buy a new rim, unless your tyre depot can straighten it. It is also just possible that there is some damage to the wall of the tyre. I would try another depot for a different opinion.
