Cobalt + Curb
Hey.....
So I figured out what's up with my tires loosing air. The left two go from 32 to 20 in less then a week.
Today, I took my left two wheels off, cleaned them up and sprayed them down with some soap and water. I found in the bead area where the bubbles started forming. Sure enough, there was also visible damage to the rim. Ironiclly though, the front rim is more damaged then the rear, but the rear leaks more then the front. The rear damage I almost didnt see, just looked like a bit of the coating chipped off. The front one has a signifent gouge in it.
I wonder if they can blend it out. Looks like I'll find out tomarrow when the shop is open. I don't have the tools or skills to take the tire off the rim myself.
