Abstract

A method, apparatus and program product determine a health condition for the tires on one or more vehicles by performing an individual self-comparison and a peer-based comparison for each tire, where the individual self-comparison reduces variances between the plurality of tires on the vehicle, and the peer-based comparison reduces variances within each tire. Anomalies, such as severe leakage and tire inflations may be detected, and slow leakages may be predicted based upon historical data associated with the health condition.
