Atb tire deflating


I have a GI flight 93 with vagus hubs. I have one tire that losses air pretty fast. lose most of pressure the next day. I took the inter-tube out of the tire and put in in water and but some air back in and could not find any bubbles. Even out of the valve steam. Put it back together and it went flat agin. Any ideas? At t first I thought in might be temperature as I left the board in the car the first time I it was a temp issue but last time it happen when stores in closet in my apt

they hold more pressure when in a tyre, so a small hole wont necessarily show up when inflated without the tyre. get a new tube anyway, they arent that expensive
