Agree, and the OP can use a $4 buck kiddie pool to find it, just fill with enough water to submerge half or all of the tire after removed from vehicle and place the tire in the water, rotate it around slowly until the bubble trail is found. Every shop I worked at had at least a half moon tire dunker for finding tire leaks. However it is more than $4 bucks. »www.pacetiresupplies.com/shop/de···?id=1435 -- What’s the point of owning a supercar if you can’t scare yourself stupid from time to time?

Just curious but does it take a "special" person to find the bubbles? And yes I know there's bubbles when you spray the soap on the tire, but let's face it, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to find the bubbles that are getting bigger.

Not everyone is mechanically inclined. I have seen several tires over the years that the owners tried to find a leak with soapy spray and couldn't. -- What’s the point of owning a supercar if you can’t scare yourself stupid from time to time?
