Had those installed with the 09 TPMS and when I upgraded to 14 sensors the tech
removed them and banded the sensors to the barrel. Unfortunately, I didn't see how they were banded and now the rear tires wont hold pressure. So the question is: are they a one piece barrel or 2 piece barrel with sealant?

The 9.5" front rim is a one piece barrel.

I'm not going back to that tire shop and will have them rechecked to see where the leak is. I thought it would be the rubber ring on the
valve stem and a simple fix.
