new tires loosing air
Just installed a lift so it's my first time with upgraded tires. Have the Moto X-Trail tires. One in particular is loosing air quickly. I found several spots on the tire where the air is leaking from. Gotta be a manufacturing defect since all the spots are in one general part of the tire. Using a soapy solution, there are multiple leaks in line patters; not just single points making the bubbles but thin lines of bubbles about 1/4" long in several spots. Tread must be thin in those spots. Tire leaks to nothing in a few days. The other three tires lose 1 lb per day. Is that rate of leakage normal? I will work on an exchange for the bad tire but now I'm wondering if this brand of tire is a low quality and if I should return them all. Any comments?

Re: new tires loosing air
I would send them ALL back and upgrade to a better set that holds air...... I have not put air in my dirt devils in a year and they are still holding the 12 psi I put in them.

Re: new tires loosing air
I havent put air in mine since i aired them up from winter use.
Contact the dealer where they came from. There shouldnt be a problem with returning them and getting something different. |
