11psi in one wheel....

Minsu · 08-05-2014, 12:34 PM

Lol I had a random act of kindness, I went to the gas station thinking it was free air But nope, I was trying my best to all for four free quarters, but nothing, random guy is like let me help you and gave me.four quarters, bless his soul. So right now psi is at 37 on all four tires let see if it holds

Whoa!!!

You need to replace all 4 wheels, TPMS and tires immediately. You caught it just in time and I am grateful you were paying attention.

Nicely done. That was a lot cheaper than 4 tires, too

When I used to rely on gas stations for air, I would always ask first. In my experience, most places that charge for air will at least turn it on free if you purchase gas. Some will turn it on free if you just ask inside.

It's Sunny D

But that was 10+ years ago when I used to abuse my vehicles (not performance vehicles, mind you) because I didn't know better. Now I don't put Sunny D in my tires

after Reading this thread I believe I have brain damage now.

Tires inflated with Sunny D make a nice squish sound when going over speed bumps.

Should probably just use water. Much more healthy.

Hmmmmm.... (thinks about filling a cars tires with water, might be interesting)

Water would give a bit of an increase in unsprung mass. The question is how to get the air bubble out so that balance is not compromised

jpkirk · 08-05-2014, 02:31 PM

Then again, since water is generally not compressible, ride might be impacted as well. So the air bubble would be useful. Need to have a dynamic movable balance weight that would monitor the position of the air bubble to offset the mass distribution.
