got a question...about three weeks ago i noticed that one of the tires on my e started losing air...im not saying that its flattens at the drop of the hat but it will 10-15psi in three to four days...i noticed it after backing into a spot early in the morning and i went up on to a curb...i popped the curb pretty good...do you think i could have unseated the tire a little bit...i was worried i might have popped a belt but i the tire still holds shape and doesnt hold air like i said....im going to run up to discount tire where i got them and have them take a look but i was curious to what everybody thought

It may be possible that there is a slight leak between the tire bead and rim from the tire being pushed off the rim at impact. There may be some grit/foreign matter preventing a good seal.

You can check for this (w/o even taking the wheel tire off the car) by spraying a 50/50 soapy water mix around the tire & rim area....do the whole sidewall or even the whole tire just in case....you will see some slight soap bubble where the air is leaking. It is easy to fix by breaking the bead (a tire shop can pop tire loose from rim on that side) and cleaning the area (check for other damage) and reinflating.

It might not be the curb thing at all....It may be caused buy an object (screw, nail, etc) in the tire tread area....have you checked? Soapy water is yer friend. :wink:
