Tyres: losing air?

[Chuckz]

kinda noob, but, just realised recently my tyre on my rear right been losing a bit of air. been to the gas station and had to fill that tyre up a bit (was at around 10 psi or so). the wheels seems to be ok as there hasnt been damaged. any1 know what could cause that tyre to lose so much air? will double check if there is nail, but dont think there is.

damaged rims?

Faulty Valve??? Mix a little bit Dish washer with water or use your sliver to testing it

pot holes on large impact can buckle your wheel ? causing air loss ?

Probably ran over a screw.

Any one have some simple fixes for a screw? - other than buying a new tyre, lol.

you can patch em up i suppose.. not to sure if there is a kit for it.. well im assuming thats what they do at tyre yards lol

Simple fix for screw or nail call Puncture Repairs. It's cost around $5. Note: It can not fix for side wall. Or buy Puncture Repairs kit from auto barn, supperchear for $20 and DIY

The DIY one is a piece of sticky rubber + lots of glue. The tyre shop repair is better because they use a mushroom plug that they put on from inside.
