I have tried to search for a post that I have saw a while ago but have been unable to find it - perhaps someone either knows where or what to search for, or knows the answer to my question.

I am getting ready to put new tires on my ERA #64. Am currently having a leaking problem with the older BFG's that are on it. Have had them off the rims and remounted and new valve stems installed, but still have a slow leak, especially in my front left.

Bob In Ct suggested the casting for the wheel may be porus - allowing air to leak. While I have the wheels off for new tires, I figure it would be a good time to seal them up as a precautionary measure.

I remember reading something about this, but as I said before, I couldn't turn it up with a search.

Anybody remember what was used to seal the wheels???

thanks

ps
Haven't made my mind up about tire choice - Yoko or Dunlop. Thanks to everyone that responded to my tire choice question. The Avon's that Fred Z recomended will probably be to expensive to ship from Calli to Conn, so I guess it is down to an American tire or a Jap tire. I have seen the Dunlops and wish they had a more aggresive looking tread pattern, haven't seen the yokos..... decissions - decissions...
