Front driver side tire
Front driver side tire
Hey boys.
I have a small problem with my left front tire losing pressure all the time. I have to inflate it once every 3-4 days latly for it to stay on 40psi.
I'm running 22's, 285/35r22 BF Goodrich's, 40psi front, 42psi rear.
Now I should mention that after taking my car back from the dealer, they set the pressure to 32 all around, I found out only 800km/ 2 weeks later. I don't know if that affects anything. Got 'em from tirerack not to long ago, didn't take the road hazzard warranty but I did not run into an hazzards or crazy potholes, the rimms are all straight with a couple minor scratches on the rim.
Any help will be appreciated.

Same problem running 22's and BF's.
Mine came mounted from GMP. I had them for less than a week before I noticed that the right front was losing about 2-3psi over 6-7days. No road hazard, just bad seal. Had the tire remounted and sealed and the problem went away.
Run a bead of watery dish soap around the lip to check for bubbles. Or better yet dunk the tire in a tub.
Could be a bad seal, bad valve stem, or raod hazard.
Also good idea to have two or a full set of tires stored JIK of a flat. Most shops don't stock the 22's regularly and this may cut down on time for getting you back on the road again.
