Now think about how many tires that guy probably did that day for people who wouldn't notice.
The first words out of my mouth when I went back: "UMMMM did somebody forget to drop the pressure after setting the seal?"
You are also correct in the fact that they do mostly trucks and RVs so would be much more used to the heavy duty stuff then an FRS.
The ironic parts was when they did my wife's RVR the week before all 4 tires were low by about 20psi!
Would have been more pissed if not for the fact that her RV sales company uses them all the time so we got a massive discount on both cars.
