tire question..need help!!
#1
I have one tire that seems to be leaking air. I check the pressure every other day and its at 20 even though I pumped air the day before. All my other tires stay around 32. Does this mean this tire is dead? Do I really need a new one?

Other things to look for are:
screws / nails... in the tire (I have had 3)
a bad valve stem (I have had 1)
buildup / rust on the rim (I had this once).
To fix the buildup on the rim they will grind the seat on the trim where the tire meets up.

I've got a leak too on my 98
But it's not as bad. If I fill it to 34, about a week later it'll be only 31 or so like the rear tires. All other 3 tires will be exactly the same. I do notice slight cracking on my sidewalls, but I don't think that's it. It may be a valve stem in my case. I'd take your car to a tire shop and see what they find because it sounds like your leak needs to be stopped.
