IMHO, try going to Wildwood tire (maybe call first), and have them look at the tires and the wheels. You also do some checking yourself, take the wheel off the golf cart, fill to correct pressure, and either submerge is water, and spray with soapy water, and look for bubbles. PS our cart needs air in the tires about 1 to 2 times per year, same as out cars.
Hope this helps.
Trust me, I know of 3 other guys having the same problem after replacing the original tires on their mag wheels. They op to put air in them ever week. As far as the soapy water test, I am well aware of that as I was a service manager for a few year at Penn-Jersey Auto Center. And before anyone suggest a can of tire seal, that will not work.
