I had the same issue with mine and the new tire didn't hold air at all. I had my brother take it to work and take it off and it was full of crude that the shop didn't clean off, old fix a flat and mystery goo. After the wheel was cleaned and the tire reinstalled it was almost perfect. That was an original i do have a repo as a spear and i noticed it has alot of defects from the casting. I intend to use it as a spear.
