Hmmm... I measured the tire pressure when I got home so it really had lost air compared to the 4.5 lbs I set them to (also measured at home).

Ah...In my professional opinion then....

You gotta tiny leak!

Yeah, I overfilled all four tires on both Grizzlies for winter hibernation to accommodate the leaking and I hope they make it until spring. I miss my ooey-gooey green slime. :cry:

So if you had 3.2 lbs when you got home, you probably had like 2 lbs down below. :-)

Get all those whiskers off? Since I shaved that one tire I was losing air from, no more issue.

I personally trimmed those whiskers myself before taking the tires to the tire shop for mounting. Therefore... I could have easily fawked up the whole job and that's why my tires are leaking! :retard:
