| The chrome plating on my wheels has large bubbles which caused three of my tires to lose air. luckily the low tire pressure warning light came on. i was on an interstate and by the time i found a gas station the tires were between fifteen and twenty pounds. luckily i knew enough to slow down or i would have had a blow-out. *tr | |||
