You are spinning the wheel in the tire. Sometimes that is caused by the tire shop using lube under the beed, don't let them use that crap. I glue the beeds and don't run the tubes. If you're running really low air psi you might have to screw the tire to the wheel. Slummit sells the screw kit.

Local tire place puts baby powder on tubes, and glues the slick to the rim with some black urethane looking stuff.
