Haven’t had my rings leak yet and they’ve been installed for 25k miles or so and have had 2 different sets of tires installed. Both where KM3s.
BFG's and Nitto's have been the two brands I've had the best luck with not leaking, with Interco being the absolute worst. Not only did they leak profusely, they weren't even round.

I have 8,000 miles on my beadlocks. 2,400 of those miles on the original Goodyears, the rest on Yokohama’s. I had one of the Goodyears leak after a trail ride, pulled the ring, liberally applied tire bead lube, re-installed and it was fine.

No leaks with the Yoko’s. I will say the Yoko’s were a major pain in the ass to get on the wheels. No tire machine in my garage. Love the tires, planned on bringing them in to get balanced, but surprisingly they rolled true, and didn’t need to be balanced.
