I had the tires filled in March and since I parked in the garage I spotted a small dried puddle around the tire and the question comes to mind is what is the process and cost involved to have the tire resealed and fixed JD3320 15-19.5 R-4 tire rim leak

I recently got a nail in each of my front R-4's (at different times). I have a tire plug gun but was out of plugs so I put in a can of fix a flat and refilled with air. I later bought plugs at NAPA and plugged the tires but the fix a flat worked fine. I'm sure worth a shot and would cost much less than removing, repairing, then refilling.
Can you see or hear where your leak is? Is it definetly a rim leak, perhaps you ran over a nail. I found mine buy airing up the tire then raised it off the ground and hosed down with water. Its been since March so you may have run over something sharp.

the liquid is slowly coming from the bead area :

I had tubes put in my tires before liquid filling. Time to call the mobile tire service, be prepared for a $100+ call out, + materials.

I had that experience earlier this month. After doing some logging in the woods, I noticed the winshield washer fluid that I have in my tires, showing up around the bead on one tire.

I put more air pressure in the tire and the fluid around the bead stopped showing up.
Figured it was the winter air that did it. :)

Don't know if that will work for you, but seems to have done the trick for me.
