Re: Tire loosing preassure (metal-x)
Most tires loose tire pressure from everyday driving... ie hitting bumps and the like. Just get a new tire today if your worried about it going. Or take the rim off and look for the leak. Soap and water pwnez jooo!

1st take some soap and water to se if there is a hole somewhere in your tire...if there is any tire shop will most likely fix it for about 20 bucks....if there isnt a hole then its one of 2 things....it could be the tire seal around the edge refered to as the bead...if you have stock rims (steelies) you can take a hammer and bang them out a tad to try and get to it seal but if not your going to have to break the bead...to do this you need a piece of wood that is strong...deflate the tire and then put the piece of wood as close as you can to the edge of the rim then use a truck to drive up on the wood pressing the tire down....then pick up some bead sealant form your local auto store...and fill the tire back up, becareful youll need someone to stand on the rimm while you fill it because the tire will jump when it pops back over the bead.......the last thing it could be is your valve stems....youd have to do the same procedure as the beads but ull need the valve steam tool to pull out the valve stem...then pick up a new valve stem and make sure the area around it is clean....and you should be good to go....if you have anymore?'s just im me and ill help ya out......wow whole tire article in a small paragraph....wheeeee

Re: (drumking15)
I'd fill your bathtub up about 1/2 way and throw it in there, see where it's leaking from. Could be a puncture, bad seat on the bead, split in the valve. Find out where it's coming from then we'll let you know what you can do about it.
