Icon3 Reminder for the Winter drivers

Did you know that naturally tires lose about 1 psi of air pressure each month? Did you also know that tires lose 1 psi for every ten-degree drop in air temperature? This means tires can easily be running several pounds under-inflated by the time winter comes along. You might not notice as the change has been gradual over the months.
... just thought i'd add this in

it's common for tires to lose about 1 psi per month but not always...i have one set of tires that loses around 1psi per month...i have another set that loses less than that
