Prior to leaving on a weekend trip tomorrow (Friday) , I was checking the roadster today and that included the tire pressure. I found the right rear at 20 PSI!

I took it back up to 35 and now, 8 hours later, I've already lost 3 PSI.

I had no prior warning from the TPMS, but I'm not ready to find fault with that yet; I might have picked up something coming home the last time I drove it (Monday evening) and the TPMS didn't have a chance to detect it.

I'm going to take it to a shop tomorrow morning that repaired a tire for me before on another car and hopefully we can get on with our weekend trip without much trouble.

My question is this: If it can't be repaired, with 6900 miles on the OEM tires, would I only need to replace the one, or would I need to replace both rears? I do normal driving.
