Discount was nice the first time and tried to fix it for free. I went back a week later and as soon as I said I brought it in last week from a popped bead and it's still leaking, some other worker said that there was a bunch of junk in it and I need a new tire. I was a little suspicious, as I didn't even tell him the story or what kind of vehicle I had. I don't know, maybe they were just busy that day and didn't want to try a second time. I wouldn't had mind paying though.ah interesting. When I was asking a bunch of questions, they told me if the wheel looked damaged, they could try some kind of sealant. Fortunately that wasn't required. Good luck!
The mom and pop place explained that they wire brushed it down and put a sealant on it to make sure it sealed. They did an excellent job, but also charged $25. I don't mind paying because they need to make money and I needed my tire fixed. I'm just saying that if I continue to pop beads on every offroad trip that I air down, things are going to get costly!
I just google'ed beadlocks and I don't know. It seems like it's a ton of work. Plus, I can fix a lot of beads for the $2500 new wheels cost! I'm just wondering if I can mount and remount the tire at home. I'm mechanically inclined, but lack the tools and knowledge.
