One of my rear tyres has dropped from 36 to 31 psi since Friday. Typically it's Sunday, and I need to drive 150 miles back to work this evening. Running hands round tyre, I can't feel anything obvious, but pulled a small 1/8..1/4 inch flint shard out of the thick part of the tread.

Do you folks reckon it's OK to drive on this week until I can get it checked, and fixed or replaced? Have re-inflated and am checking to see what the pressure-drop is like in the next hour or two. Tyres have 6500k on them.



If it doesn't get any worse you're probably OK until you can get it repaired, but re-inspect the tire to make sure nothing else is in the tire. I would jack-up the car and look closely at the tire.....
