I have a tire question

[99'EclipseGS]

Okay so I go and drive away and my tire is flat out of no where. Didn't run over anything didn't hit any pot holes, I tried filling it with air and it has complete 0 pressure, I tried filling with an electrical pump and that didn't work so I went to Hess and got free air with their pressure and that didn't work it held no air what-so-ever. I asked my dad and he said it could be the bead holding no air. What do you think. And if that's the case is it an expensive fix?? I'm trying to go turbo all all this bad stuff keep happening

Buy a used, or get a new tire? Another fix is to take the tire off, put it in water (big ass bucket, etc) and fill it with air to see where it is leaking from.

Here ya go bud

If your bead is the problem.. check where it's leaking with water first.

Aluminum wheels are subject to corrosion that builds up and breaks the seal of the bead. At work, we use a wire wheel to remove the corrosion, then remount the tire. If the surface of the wheel rim is bad enough, we use a bead-sealer compound to help seal it and reduce the effect of the corrosion. Winter is a tough time on wheels/tires due to the extreme heat cycling, the moisture, salt on the roads if your county/state does that, etc. Add to the fact that no one pays attention to their wheels and tires until there's something wrong, and you get leaks.

Other options can be a cracked valve stem or a puncture big enough that you can't inflate the tire. If you've driven the car with such low air pressure for any length of time, chances are you've ruined the sidewall of the tire beyond repair. This is indicated by an indented ring around the sidewall (I call it the Ring of Death). Seeing this ring almost guarantees that when you dismount the tire, you'll end up with a handful of pulverized rubber dust in the tire; the result of tremendous heat and pressure on the sidewall that it's not supposed to take. Also, you may have simply broken the bead off the rim if you've driven it or let it sit too long on 0psi. That's going to take someone to professionally remount the tire, if it can be salvaged.
