Had the tires taken off on Friday. Apart at my buddy's house and removing the sealant, cleaning them up, and then putting them back together:
Back at my place:
It appeared that the leaks were coming from the barrel side. I didn't really clean them when I got them from Rotiform and the silicone peeled right off of the barrels, which it should not do. It was obvious there was very little adhesion between the silicone and barrel. So we roughed them up pretty good before going back together.
May have gone a little overboard, damn near filled in the whole gap between the lip and barrel, but don't really feel like taking any chances.
These should be fun to balance. lol

No, I haven't, and I haven't seen anyone else try that. I feel like if it was a popular method there would be some info on it. But I've never seen that.
