Off-season tires go flat during storage
Taking off my snows after another winter, popping on my fairly brand new Pirelli P4 All-seasons, I realized one tire was almost flat.
Funny, is this a common occurrence when it is in storage, I did inflate, and for a few hour all looks well, but maybe I need to get it checked, and tomorrow is saturday, not too many garages open. |

Took it in and had a nail in it. |
had them check the front struts, the metal rod broke through. Probably accounts for that moaning sound.
At $120 Monroe's each plus $240 labor + $90 allignment, its ouch. :bawling: could save $120, if I pried out the springs myself, but forget it. Forget Rockauto, I'm in Canada, shipping and duty costs aint worth it. |

Yeah that makes sense.

It strikes me that you are taking off your snow tires too early. I wouldn't be surprised if you got more snow yet.
