In Reply to: Re: Re: heres what happened... I'm park my car for an hour and come back and the tire is flat. So I go tothe tire place with it and they can't find a leak. So I drive it around for a month and one day I park it again and the tire goes flat. So, I take it in again and again they can't find a leak but remove a weight andadd the stick on kind because maybe that could be the cause. So, a month later it goes flat again. What is going on!!!!! n/m posted by Peter Klosky on March 24, 1999 at 16:06:10:
The problem may not be with the tire at all. It may be the rim. If the rim is split it will leak only in one particular position of the wheel. Hence the random nature of the problem. Second, when the tire goes flat, mark the rim as to position. A piece of duct tape will do. Then when it happens again see if the wheel was in the same position. If so look on the side of the rim that was on top for the problem.
