Every three months, I take the wheel / tire assemblies one at a time into
the bathroom and then let the air out with the bathroom exhaust fan running.

Sometimes the neighbors complain though.

When I brought my 65 Westy home from where it sat in a back yard for 7-8
years, the tires were still fully inflated.  Now it's 4-5 years later, & the
tires are still full of air.  Do I need to change the air in them, & where
do I dispose of the bad air???
