Always deflated tire is this normal?

Everything considered you might also want to try to shift to nitrogen gas. medyo may gastos (some place charge 100 per tire. pero in some places lifetime na pa karga ulit) pero the advantages would outweigh the cost.

Pro - stable pressure. unlike air which fluctuates and during a hot day rises from 30psi to 38psi. Since nitrogen is heavier and denser than air small leakes will not cause tire deflation as much as air does. since your recommended pressure is maintained, mas fuel efficient at di-tatagtag ride mo.
Cons - cost. plus difficult to have if service stations with nitrogen are far from your usual routes.

much has been said

add na lang, ano na po ba ang status ng tires mo? kung luma na or bago? kelan huling nabuksan? ok pa ba yung pito(tire valve)? have it checked at the local vulcanizing shop(yung may machine na pang tanggal ng tire), it wont cost you much either..

pano ba dapat vulcanizing sa tubeless tires? nung nagpavulcanize kami eh pinasakan ng "karayom" na may makapal na "sinulid"? parang sticky thing.

saka kung every 2 weeks ka nagpapahangin, is it advisable na pa-vulcanize at pahanap kung may butas?

tire pressure can change a little bit, but after some time (months?). in my case, i always check my tire pressure since the blowout on the highway years ago.

a few days ago one of my front tires started losing air. the problem turned out to be the valve. good thing i have a portable inflator and i was able to put some air and took my ride to the tire shop.

just to share (baka makatulong din sa ibang tsikoteers dyan), i experienced the very same thing sa 16" na gulong ko. almost weekly ako nagpapahangin dun sa isa kong gulong (from 30 to 10 PSI in a weeks' time!). So I brought it repeatedly to Bridgestone here in sta. rosa, di nila makita kung ano problema, ok naman daw pito at walang butas. pagkatapos ng 3rd na visit ko dun and upon the advice of my mechanic, dinala ko sa ibang shop. Ginawa nila, medyo inoverpressure nila yung gulong then sinawsaw sa tubig, ayun bumula nga dun sa interface ng rim at gulong. Steel brush dun sa rim then linis, Problem solved! Ayon dun sa gumawa, minsan nadudumihan yung rim or iniiihan ng aso, kaya un di lumalapat ung gulong. Isang buwan na mahigit, di na naglileak.

Di ko lang alam kung may effect sa gulong yung pag overpressure at paglinis ng rim using steel brush...

question..is it true na masama sa gulong yung naiihian ng aso (maybe almost everyday)? halos araw-araw kasing naiihian ng aso namin..pagkadating ko pa lang ng bahay amoy at ihi agad..minsan di ko nahuhugasan..masama po ba yun?

conspiracy lang yun or myth sir. hehehe

however, anybody's or anything's pee can(maybe) cause corrosion sa rims.

san ka sa valenzuela sir? anung auto mo? baka nakikita kita eh

Well, it could damage the shiny finish of an alloy wheel but not harm the rubber tire. Also the moisture of the pee can cause rust to form on unprotected steel wheels but nothing catastrophic.

Napanood ko sa CSI dati na yung ihi daw ay may yeast. Kung madalas iniihian, tapos dumami yon sa loob ng gulong, yari.

Wow. Tagal na pala nitong thread na to. At nagtanong ako pero di ko na nabalikan hehehe.

*sir EJ
I see po. Kaya pala may kalawang na yung parang rectangular thing sa mags namin.

Toyota Vios po. Near Malinta, Valenzuela lang po. Hehe pero you know that already, tagal na kasi netong thread at nakalimutan ko na magreply dito hehe

*sir GH
Salamat po sir! I guess you're right, di na ganoon ka-kintab yung rims namin

*sir robot.sonic
I see.. Talaga po sir? Hehe nice, I'm also watching CSI. CSI:NY

Anyways, we still have the same problem. Ang bilis mawalan ng hangin on both the front tires (previously yung both left tires lang, pinagawa yung both, pinalitan ng pito, naging ok na except for the left front).

Honestly I can say that 3-5 times a week mo siya dapat pahanginan to maintain the desired pressure.. Although the lowest it could get is 18 PSI. Kahit judging pa lang sa itsura, naka-dapa eh. Minsan inoover-inflate ko na para matagal bago dumapa.
