around one of the weights on the inside of the tyre, the air seems to be leaking out of it
its very noticeable tbh, say about the size of 2 pinholes

how dangerous is this on a car being ragged around a track? i understand the tyre will lose pressure eventually, im talking likelyhood of a blow out, if i pump the tyre before igo on track?

get some tyreweld or whatever its called for a quick fix.

Depends wether its just a badly seated tyre or a hole in the alloy though as to if it will work or not i should imagine.

just remove the weight as its breaking the bead, in future use the flat stick on weights.
