Inside i have found if you put about 8 oz. of dish soap inside the rear slick if you don't run tubes, it somehow seals the leaks. I don't know about front runners, because i've never had them leak that much. But i don't run dragster front runners.

My phoenix rear slicks used to leak like a sum biitch, took out valve core, poured in approx a cup of dish soap in each one & wallah, no more leaks.

the soap acts as a home remedy of FIX-A-FLAT..just run tubes on rear,we have found some of the local high hp oulaw guys are having fewer tire shakes with rear tubes and they are just as quick.while the guys not running tubes claiming too much rotating weight and heat
