Happy New Year! We are using the TireMinder TPMS which, yesterday, began indicating a slow leak (from 110 lbs pressure to 60 lbs). Fortunately, we were close to our destination campground and managed to get situated safely. Expecting a tire puncture, a local tire service came to take the tire/wheel to be repaired. Interestingly, the tire was perfect but the 16" JFW wheel had a small crack, causing the pressure to slowly decline. I'm now running on the spare steel wheel/new tire. Has anyone experienced this kind of failure? How easy/difficult is it to replace one of the aluminum wheels?
