Did you check to see if the valve stem inside cores are tight? Sometimes if they aren’t then air can leak out there.

The valve cores were checked. My detailer took off one of the wheels (the worst one) and sprayed the entire thing down with soap. We could not find a single bubble. They swapped the air out for Nitrogen........so far so good. I guess I’ll find out tomorrow if they are still leaking. Is it possible that the rims are defective?

You really think you would get 4 defective rims? I highly doubt it.
Your car looks great. You’ll find the pressure issue shortly I’m sure. Then all will be good my friend👍 |

Thanks man! I guess the tires have a better chance of being defective. They are not that old so it's probably not them

Car looks amazing. I agree the ZLE looks very aggressive and angry.

I hit a pothole HARD a couple days after getting my MP4S installed and immediately started slowly losing air...went straight to my local discount tire(they’re awesome) and they had a gigantic bowl of water they press it down into to check for bubbles. Turns out i busted a seam in the tire, not bent the wheel..they are pretty tough |

Surprising
I’ve read 2 years ago somewhere on this forum that the 19’’ Rims don’t fit the MRC unless you cut some metal at the upper part of the MRC to make some clearance... |

Tires will leak sometimes if there is dirt or contamination around the rim bead seal. I have had this happen and unmounting the tires, cleaning the rims and remounting fixed it.
food for thought

I never thought about that. My detailer pumped up the tires with 32 psi of nitrogen yesterday. Today, the tires were reading between 30psi and 31psi. |
