What is going on here? Tires (46N Wrathlorde) worked fine last year on these rims. This year, having issues, including sealant out the studs? Bike is being stored vertically and the sealant is coming out the studs on the horizontal part of the tires. Both front and rear. Rear was losing air on first ride, so I pumped both front and rear up to 10 psi after i got home. After 2 days I was going to ride again (and air down the tires) but came out to this.

I have never seen anything like this.

Front tire holds air, rear is losing air. Thinking of taking rear tire off, dump any excess sealant. Let it air dry, put tire back on, add sealant and air it back up.

It will seal eventually, rubber shrunk or dried up a bit.

I’ve never seen or heard of sealant coming out the stud holes on a fat tire. The obvious solution is more sealant possibly heavy on the latex mold builder to seal up the holes…not sure if anything else but a tube would work, you got holes in your tire…

Did it come studded? As in, are the studs the right length?

Don't panic. I've seen worse.

I've never seen that happen, I'd send that pic to 45Nrth and see what they say.

Factory studs, haven't even lost one yet.....lol

LBS is reaching out to 45N on Monday (I believe through Salsa or QBP, I can't remember).

Dumb question perhaps, but are these ones listed as tubeless ready?

Yes.

If you're using Stans (which the pic seems to look like), I'd suggest switching away as a quick first effort.

It loves to weep through tiny weak points, rather than seal them.

Orange Seal works like Stans used to before they changed their formula (which they deny)....

 

[wrightcs77]

Sealant is orange sub zero.

45N said they have never seen this before. Other than that, they aren't really interested in doing anything else.

So, they aren't going to replace it??

What does the inside look like?

My 45N wrathchilds are doing the same thing. I am using Orange seal as well.
Third year on them. Tire works fine and i have no pressure drop on the trail ..

What did 45N say when you inquired about this?

 

[OttaCee]

All those utters with milk coming out!

My suggestion, toss a bunch of glitter into the sealant to seal up the tiny holes.

Sounds familiar. I've contacted them 3 times, and not a single time have they shown any interest in what was going on. Love their tires, but service is poop.
