air leak in stretched tyres
hey guys,
so i have some 195/45/15 on a 9 inch wide wheel
i put 2 wheels on the rear of my car, went to go for a test drive, went down my drive way it started leaking air... so i immediately drove it back up into the drive way, within 5 minutes the tire was completely flat, this is both tires... does anyone know what the problem is? need more seals? broken bead? i dont know, someone who has encountered this problem and have any input would help, and any place you recommend to remount these wheels would help, preferably a place that doesn't say "oh its leaking cause its the wrong size tyre, so we cant help you"
thanks in advance, tom

No offense but 195 on a 9 inch wide rim is more than likely the problem. That's super stretched.

as above
at the extreme edges of the rim , they are deformed beyond the normal limits of use. Static it might be OK but while driving the tyre will deform further.
You are doing something illegal and dangerous so dont be surprised !

just out of curiosity? whats the worst that can happen though, like tyre just rolls out my wheel and i end up driving on the rims? tyre flies into other lane, other road users dodge and they hit other cars and then somebody gets injured, but doesnt that risk come with every other thing we do? you cant tell me you havent speed on the road, thats endangering other road users, let the police do the law enforcement..

i literally suspect that your tyres are just too stretched.

just as an idea of what they'd look like...
i think you're pushing the boundaries of stretching there
