Dish soapwill really help with that.You use dish soapif you got a hole in the main part of the tread as well.Fork out the money for tubes, they are cheap insurance if the slick blows anyways.

They're not leaking where the rim meets the tire. it's coming through the actuall siewall where the mt letters are in the middle of the sidewall.

Pro- One of my best friends has the same tires. they will seep through the sidewall unless you drive on them every day. take both wheels off, let all the air out, break down the tire from the rim, and add 2 tablespoons of dawn dish detergent to the inside of the tires. Air them back up. The soap will get between the rim and the tire and slow the leakage. It will still leak, but not nearly as fast. Its cheaper than tubes though. I am sure you have a little air compressor that you plug into a cigarette lighter that you could add a few pounds of air every week to keep em up. Thats what my friend does.

Airing up tires every two days = teh SUCK! [:@]

RE: My tires
you can get the "budget" tubes for $35 each, but i'd do the mickey's
McCormack racing has the cheaper ones, summit probably does too.
i think they are synthetic rubber not natural.
