When I was 15 years old (I am now 60) I worked for my uncle at his Marathon Gas station. This was back in the day when someone else pumped your gas, checked your oil, and aired up your tires while you got your fill up! (what happened to those days!)
Anyway, because he was a mechanic as well, and had 2 bays and one lift, he did all kinds of auto repairs also. Changing out tires on the rims was a daily occurrence, and he taught me how to change tires, balance them, and then re-install back on the vehicle.
One thing that was VERY common when changing tires was the amount of water inside the "tubeless tires". Tires that still had inner tubes, the inner tubes were just tossed away and replaced with a new one. So I had no clue what was inside the tube. But "tubless tires" were notorious for having quite a bit of water in them. My uncle explained, the moisture came from the air compressor. After repeated tire checks and little spurts of air with the compressor over a period of time, and the water vapor, molecules condense together and, yes, create a puddle!
