You will have to figure out where the leak is first, bead or sensor. The TST's have a small rubber washer that must be inserted prior to the sensors being installed BB_TX is correct, they do not have to be over-tightened and his description of tightening until the hissing stops is likewise correct. I think I would take the sensor off a tire, air it up and check pressure to see if the tire itself is leaking, if the pressure holds, then I would think the sensors are not sealing properly. The real question is whether you damaged the tires if they went flat enough to sit on the rims??
