leaky wheels

[VeeDubGTI16v]

a few of the bolts in my wheels (bbs rm)are leaking a bit of air so im gonna take them out and seal them properly. what sort of sealant is best to use? can i use gasket sealant?

took me a few attempts of reading this before i realised what you were asking (had visions of air coming out of wheel nuts)
beg/steal/borrow/buy a valve removal tool, unscrew the valves and replace with new ones, theyre not expensive.

if thats not what you meant, then i dont know, if this is a windup, i fell for it  :'(

ok, they are split rims and where the rims bolt to the centre bit of the wheel it leaks air from a few of the bolt holes.

When I took my wheels to be refurbished the guy was going to take the rims apart then put them back with silicone sealant.? Dont know whether this helps?!??

ill try silicone sealant then.
