Had a rim develop two pinhole leaks. I tried using JB weld, but that only lasted a short time. Took tire to the Sullivan tire store what works on tractor tires.
The tire was filled with water and mud and the rim had major rust issues. I bought the tractor used so I guessing the tire came off the rim, got mud in it and they just aired it up.
The tire store recommended going to Wal-mart and buying as seen on TV Flex seal that you brush on. I also bought metal conditioner which I used on the rust after I wired brushed it. Then I brushed on rustolum. It took 3 days for the think layer of rustolum to cure. Now I'm applying Flex seal. I'm impressed how well it filling in the major rust pits.

I'll post pics below from phone. Hope they are in focus. Hard to tell with my old eyes on a phone screen.
