Haven't used mine in a few years and dug them out last night while getting ready for GS and they feel pretty squishy.  :smt005

Don't feel flat like punctured...just softer than I remember them being...

Worth going to gas station and topping off with air, or just leave as is?

Thanks!

 :smt006

Sincerely,

Jim

Supposed to use a hand pump for them I thought, over inflation is bad!  Do not over inflate!!!

As noted on the tire sidewall, the PSI range for a WheelEEZ© Wheels is 2-4 PSI.
The wheels are best inflated with a manual bicycle pump.
Note: Car tire pressure gauges can't measure pressure this low. You will need a Low Pressure Gauge

They also plump up if in the sun. Were they stored somewhere dark and cool? That could explain the squishiness. I'm talkin' tires here.
If you don't know where you're headed, any road could get you there.

Yeah, they have been in the shade...maybe I'll put em in sun and see how they feel before risking blowing them up.

Discovered yesterday that I've got a wheel that won't stay inflated too. Bringing my pump also if anyone needs one.
