I think you should inflate the tires to the maximum indicated on the 
sidewalls and submerge them in water or spray with a dishwasher detergent 
and water mixture to find the source of the leaks.  It is possible that
the 
wheels are ****ous or that leaks have developed where the bead meets the
rim.
