Bead sealer

Is it good pracice to use traditional automotive bead sealer on yellow Vegas..I always have small leaks on outer bead on the right sides...thanks
 
Some of the current wheels are coming with very sharp outer edge/faces. Since Vegas are already smaller at the bead, you may want to smooth the wheel edge with some fine sandpaper or even a file before mounting.
Use plenty of mounting lube too, and it helps if the tire is warm.

You should not be getting any leaks.
If you do, CA glue can work, or a small amount of silicone as mentioned above.
