Hi all, I wanted to get your thoughts, my tyres or at least 3 of them (goodyear eagle f1v2's) keep loosing a bit of air daily, I have to pump them up every 3 days. The rims are in ok nick, the tyres were fitted professionally working the inside of the rim to get rid of corrosion pre fitting. Yet still they loose air?, soapy water trick will reveal the side walls as loosing air, has anyone else had issues like this?

Did they use sealing past when they fitted them? The black stuff they put around the rims.
If there leaking then take them back and get them to re-fit.

Cool, thanks for advice guys, I'll make sure they put plenty of sealant in on new tyres, i took one back for a refit and more sealant and that rim holds best, the confusing thing was the rims loosing air were fine for 3 months, I was concerned I would need some new rims, I'm going to get them refurbed soon so this should help too, cheers
