If you can't see, look closer. Tires are not solid, look at how much a tire on a drag car expands when it is launched There is also Boyle's Gas Law I don't know how it works ( actually I do I have a Engineering degree) all I know is the cars I see come thru the shop and what I read in...

Toyota vehicles with full size spares on wheels matched to the car (5 alloy wheels) do have TPMS sensors, when people complain their TPMS light is on and they have filled the tire, the first thing I do is check the spare tire pressure. It is usually very low as nobody checks the pressure on...
