I am taking to tire store tomorrow for a look. I will post pics if anyone is interested.

Thanks
I had a leak at the TPMS stem (997**** TPMS). Found that all four were not a snug as they should be. I give them a check while performing wheel torque check w/ a 11mm wrench before my first track session of the day.

No definitive torque due to the O ring setup. Over tightening could destroy the O ring seal!
