Well, from what I understand, ur tire is loosing air and ur fork seals are leaking. The last set of tires I Did, they guy pulled me to the back to show me the insides of both rims, pretty badly corroded on the inside, needed to be cleaned up with a wire wheel.. might wanna do this urself as well because of coarse it makes it difficult for the bead to correctly seat.. and of coarse fork seals are fork seals. Good luck!

Could be a leak from the drain screw - replace copper washer.
As for the tyre loosing air, try replacing the schrader valve.
