Default RE: Losing Air



I posted a few weeks ago about those chrome rims on the wifes 03 Turbo losing air every other day. We brought it back to WallyWorld severaL times about the problem. They would break the bead and put new valve stems etc,etc. Every other 3 days, she would lose 8 lbs. 15 lbs. of air in all of the tires.

We finally gave the wheels to our friends at work. They broke down the wheels and thoroughly grinded the rims and reamed out the valve stem hole. You should have seen all tshe grit that tahey got out of there. WE took the tirers back to WallyWorld and showed them the envelope with all tshe grit. I told the wife, if they try and charge us for the balancing, we AINT paying for it. They did the balance, and didnt charge us for the balance.

During the last 3 weeks, we havent lost any AIR AT ALL.

If you guys have that problem, that is the way to cure your problems.
