Ok...Since i blew my shit up lol I dont learn my lesson...anyways its been sitting for 3 days now...today I went out to work on it a little bit and my front tire was flat...pulled it off filled with air and seen its leaking on the inside of the wheel around the bead where they hammered in a wheel weight...my question is what should I do?? Is my tire bad? Wheel bad?? Someone please help!!!!

Thanks!
 
Take the wheel weight off and then reapply it. Sometimes it digs into the bead and causes it to leak. I had to take it off and re apply it on various occasions and it worked.
 
bring it back to where you had the tires mounted
have them pull the tire and check / clean up the lip on the rim
then have them remount / balance the tire
check it for leaks before it goes back on the car
 
if it leaks at the weight then the wrong type of weight was used. if it is new take it back you should not have to fix it.
