I have a b6200hst. Rear tires (29x12.00-15) worked fine, but were dry rotted everywhere. Finally I found a used Goodyear turf tires 29x12.50-15 to replace them. they looked newish. Had them mounted. A day or two later both were flat. Filled them back to 10psi. the rims look nice from the exterior. I’ve heard sometimes you need a bead sealer, or an additive, etc. I’m assuming the guy who installed would have looked for rust. Ideas from here? Thx

Get you a spray bottle - place a some dish washing soap in the container and a fill with water. Shake a bit and spray the entire tire. Tire - rim -thread.
Bubbles are your enemy - if at rim's edge then you may need to have them reseated with bead sealer - black gooey stuff.
If in the tread - may want to tube both of them.
the bubbles will tell the story

Take it BACK to tire place ....... have them reseat it with the black goo - or tube them. They should do the first for little or no $$$
Just went to the tire guy. There is a sign in his window that says he’s off all next week for the 4th. Bad timing. Discount tire suggests tubes. Might be best option? Any downsides?

Just put stop leak in them.
I use some really good stuff that saves me a lot of flats over normal everyday wear and tear.

Kubota sells a sealer that I have heard nothing but good reviews about. I haven't had a need for the product, but if I did, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase it.

Can it be used for vehicles that travel at highway speeds, like a car or light truck?
Also, how much is used per tire? I'm betting it depends on tire size, but I can't seem to find a chart that tells me.

Its been over two years so I dont remember. I think I used the whole bottle in the little BX front tire. It was 32 oz or less.

Can you add this to tires filled with WWF without draining out all the WWF?
