<\/a><\/p>\nI’ve been watching a slow leak on the front right over the last week or two (been dropping approx 15psi every 3-4 days) and whilst checking it out during the trip I also noticed the insides of the two front tyres are scrubbing out slowly.<\/p>\n So when I got home I decided to rotate the tyres around before getting the missus to take it down for a wheel alignment this week.
