Ya. The last one I did a couple weeks ago before I went to the shop last week was leaking about 6 different places on the inside bead.

Same with the rear one this week.

They said it was the bead on the left rear, and the sensor on the right rear.

We have a new solution for you - run flat tires. No Air. Better yet, swipe a set of plastic ones from a Big Wheel...

Man, you have had the worst luck with those 22's. :(

Once they get ironed out, I think I'll be fine.

DAMN I wish I'd have just went with the same wheels but 20s.

I really think it's the 22" aspect of the wheels that is the culprit.

Not sealing ont he bead, sensors leaking, vibrated so bad, etc............. heck, they still vibrate, just much less. Acceptable.

I will probably end up in something else. Just a shame since these look sooooo daaaaamn gooooood.

Sorry bro...man you've had a lot of bad luck...mine have never leaked and have zero vibration. You've had all this crazy stuff happen AND sacrificed a piece of your finger!

You need to drive my car at the fest and tell me what you think.

LMAO, it's par for the course though. guys are posting vids of dynos, cams, and big numbers, and I'm just wanting air in my tires. LMAO

On a good note, this morning I didn't have to add any air. Of course, my TPMS light is on because of the missing sensor. I'm getting used to that light being on.

Yea...my light is on right now, but that's because I wanted to try out the Forgestar 18s I bought for the track. No reason to install sensors on those. They don't look as good as my Savinis, but they do look pretty mean with those big fat Mickey Thompsons. Of course they also hook much better on the street.

Today's word of the day is.....

That is all....carry on.

An itty bitty piece of black tape will cover that light for life..

MMMMMMMMMMM .... Got CAM???

[Scott@Bjorn3D]

Randy you are my buddy and all but I will of sued Savani by now on those dang wheels. You are a much better man than me.

Then again some day you may listen to me more often (Fuse Pull). I told you after we saw the GM 21" wheels on the car in Eufaula not to get them. But you did and then the drama started.

Just left the office and got home. Had to work late.

Went to the car and started it. One of the three sensors that are in told me I had 22 pounds of air in it. I got out and put a gauge on it.

Left rear. Only 22 pounds. OMFG.................. I'm going nuts.

Then I notice that the shop put the front wheels on the wrong sides of the car. I hadn't noticed it over the weekend.

They also scraped a circle on the black paint on the spokes about an inch outside the center cap I hadn't noticed on both front wheels.

I"m so pissed. Holy shit.

Anybody got some stock wheels they want to trade for?
