How would you check a tire for leaks?
What will be an ideal response?
A tank full of water is used to check for leaks. Roll the inflated tire slowly around in the tank while looking for bubbles at the area where the tread meets the water. This an effective way to locate the very small bubbles from a slow leak. If there are no bubbles at the tread line, hold the valve stem under water as you push it from side to side. Check carefully where the tire bead meets the rim as well. On a steel wheel, a rusty wheel rim can cause a leak here.
