Is anybody having issues with deflation on the AR tyre?
My brand new set is losing about 5psi overnight.....
I have 'water' tested them with no obvious leaks in the sidewall, bead or valves.

I would like to understand if I have an issue that is unusual or is this a general quality problem that can be feed back to AR.

This sounds about right, it is unlikly you have done anything wrong. The Americans that raced a simillar AR for years on there vee's nicknamed them American Leakers. I summize that they are supposed to have a tube?

I understand that AR are going to rectify this with the next batch...

Update - After the last SA Round (Super Trucks - well done Ben Forgan) it seems that is is a common problem across all AR's in this batch.
This being the case, and if the comment above from David is correct, shouldn’t we (FVAA) be pursuing rectification for the current batch......
