wierd tire problem need help.
 
need help with tire problem. the other day i lowered my 2000 protege lx and the day after i noticed my front right tire was really low so o figured no big deal i fill it up. i go fill it up but i put to much air in it because it looked low even when i knew it had the psi in the tire. so after that i drive off and the tire hold the air and its all good. well no that tire feels real mushy and still looks a little low so i switched the rear tire to the front to see if it was the tire or had something to do with my car being lower. i did a search on camber corection and saw that you could adjust it by turning the strut. So i would any input on what you think the prob is. thank you.

Buy a tire gauge. You cannot gauge tire pressure by feel.

maybe you just have a tire losing air??? pinhole maybe ??...either that or you need an alignment, which should be done after lowering a car anyway

here's some advice cuz i work at a tire store.....NEVER drive on an underinflated or flat tire. not even a short distance it will ruin your tires!! i agree with macdaddy.. get an alignment.
