Help!!!!
Okay, so I had a tire that kept going flat (very slowly, but it was old) so I took it to get it and it's counterpart from the other side replaced. The tire shop replaced them, and a few days later I noticed one of the new tires was flat! So, I took it back and when they took off the tire they found that I had some bead corrosion (where the tire meets the rim). The guy said that there are places that could fix it, but it wouldn't be cheap. I'm in the process of trying to get my money back for the tires, but that's another story altogether.
But, does anybody have any ideas (other than a can of fix a flat) that will help me? Does anyone know how much it may cost to get that fixed?

Dude, why don't you just go to a junkyard and replace the rim completely?
 That is unless your rims are aftermarket and not OEM rims.
