Nissan 370Z Forum - View Single Post - Do some tires/wheels hold air pressure better than others?

I've had my z for 15 months now and it's a daily driver, and parks outside on the driveway every night. I noticed with Sport wheels/tires (and now Hankook v12 replacement in the rear) that I've never had to fill up or adjust air at all except when it's winter time. All the beating I've put them through (burnouts, drifting, launches, high speed runs), it's never read any other number except 35 everytime.
I'm curious because other cars I've had or dealt with had to get a fill every once in a while or just had randomly different air pressures all around the car after some time. So what's the deal?
