   Is this a normal thing to happen. My tyres were 2.2 on the fronts now they are 2.0. I havnt driving the car in 3 days. Conditions have bin really bad and its took me ages just to get all the snow off. Should i go pump them up or will they change when i get going. Thanks

   Pressure will change between the tyre getting hotter or colder.
   
   Can't remember which does which
   
   Wouldn't worry too much unless they look really low

   Tyre pressures are higher when the tyre is warm.

   Which is why they recommend you pump/check tyre pressure when the tyre is cold rather than warm/hot.
