Have a bit of a problem which I am hoping some member can help me with.
My tyres which came with the car (Pirelli Cinturato P7 EcoImpact 225/40 R18 92W) are in good condition but are losing pressure. Pump them up  to (38 LB.) all round 'but' 2 days later they have dropped to 27-30LB. The tyre sensor is adjusted after pumping up and the caps firmly screwed home.
All I can think of is: rims have been damaged, tyre sensor..........? Do I go out and have 4 new tyres fitted? Thank you.

Submerge them in water and find the leaks
Any tyre place will have this available.

soapy water spray also is easier if you do not want to submerge. Spray with a good lather and wait, you will see bubble form after a few minutes from leak.
 Some rims need tubes..  my  Cromodora CD35 rims were for tube tyres ..   tubeless would of leaked.
