Dually Inside Tires

My inside dual tire on both sides are not holding air as well as the outside tires. Are any of you experiencing this issue with your dually tow vehicles? I have stopped three times and had the inside tires aired up to the same air pressure as the outside tires but they lose air at a much faster rate. Your suggestions and help with this issue would be greatly appreciated. I can't hear any air expelling from either inside tire.

Gotta be coincidence. My inside tires are as reliable as the outside. I air them up in the spring and keep monitors on them. Never a concern.

Unless you have a drastic change in altitude or outside air temps, you shouldn't see much change in any tires for several weeks. Quickest way to get to the bottom of this is find a tire shop with a water tub and have them submerge them while looking for big or small bubbles. Leaks around beads, wheels themselves, valve stems, valve cores, and of course nails, screws, tacks, bolts, thorns ….

Do you have any type of valve stem extenders on the inside tires? If so, that could be the problem.

Do you have the same type of wheels on the inside, steel on the inside and aluminum on the outside?

Never had a problem other than one extender that leaked on me.
