Recently set up my wtb exposures on fulcrum racing 5s as tubeless. The rear has settled in perfectly but the front seems to be leaking air directly out of the sidewalls. There is no sealant weeping like most other people seem to post about.
Has anyone experienced this? What’s the fix?

Did you measure out eyeball the sealant? May need more. Also slosh sealant everywhere inside the tire. I had to ride Mine around to get air leak to completely stop
More sealant and make sure you really shake you tyre around to get it spread out. You should probably put the tyre horizontal when swishing it around. Also pump the tyre up to the highest psi rated for the tyre. Pump, move and shake the tyre every once and a while to ensure the sealant gets everywhere, especially the sidewalls. Can take a few days on a new tyre sometimes.
