BOTH! If you're still loosing air pressure like that, it's most likely the wheel is the problem. Are these two-piece wheels? Maybe they're leaking where they went together. As some other people states, there could be a problem with the bead or the stem. Spray it down and check it out....

If they were 2 piece, the barrel couldn't possibly be leaking where it attaches to the center piece, its solid. If it were a nonwelded 3 piece wheel, then it could possibly be leaking from the seam

it is a 3 piece rim...maya mrs.not sure if its welded or not but i think it is coming from the rim. its weird though it only leaks overnight. im going to take it to this wheel place in brooklyn that fixes bent rims, hopefully they no what the problem is. last night when it was leaking air i could hear it. it was coming from where the stem is but i think the bend in the rim is on the inner side of the rim right by the stem im not sure
