R56 Tire Pressure

Tire Pressure
I just filled my stock 16" Dunlap Summer Run Flats yesterday to 33 per tire. I checked the tires today and both on the left were down to 30. Right were at 32.
Tires were cold when I filled them and checked them, and I used the same gauge.
Could the tires have lost 3 pounds in 1 day?

You need to measure consistently. If you fill first thing in the morning after letting it sit overnight, you gotta measure first thing int he morning the next day after driiving same distance you drove to the gas station. I always put in 1-2 psi extra when I reach the station because the tires heat up even on a short drive. One trick that I use is to measure before I leave and then measure again at the gas station to see if they heated up at all.

Can anyone recommend a good tire gauge? For some reason, I don't trust those little chrome ones with the stick that pops out. Would definitely prefer a digital readout!
I got a false reading on the tire pressure sensor when i started up a couple of weeks back and it was bitter cold outside.
Thanks!

A little pricey .... but a well built unit that will display the pressure while bleeding air off.
