I've too have runflats on my MC, it's my first experience of runflats so am no expert.

what I did notice is that on previous cars I always checked the tyre pressures once a week and never really seen any significant change.

on the MC for some reason I thought as it has the pressure monitor I did not need to check them as regular........................................... ...mistake

yesterday I checked them to find they were all 24psi and I like to run at 30psi

I have 17" flame alloys and they must lose pressure more than normal tyres.

based on this your tyre dealer could be correct as the wheel must play a part in retaing the pressure ?

why not swop the tyres around so that you have a different tyre on the suspect wheel to prove if it's the wheel at fault ?

I will now check my pressures on a more regulau basis, what pressure do you run at ?
