Default ES300 Lopsided

Hello to all LEXOWNAS.

Please assist. I had a flat tire yesterday and after repairing the flat today, and parking, I notice that the car is lopsided from the driver side. The spare was on all night until this morning. I have 18" rims with 225/40/18 tires. Any suggestions?

Default Air Pressures

Make sure the pressures are the same. I'm guessing you haven't kept up on checking your pressures and the repaired tire is inflated with a higher air pressure then your other tires. On 18 inch wheels I would run no less then 35 psi all the way around and never exceed the maximum inflation pressure listed on the tire sidewall....

Thanks for your quick reply. I carry 36 psi on all four and the tire that was repaired was refilled at 36psi . I will recheck to be 100% sure. The link was helpful. Thanks again
