When changing a tire, make sure that the bead is NOT seated covering the air hole on the tire pressure sensor. You will get NO air into the tire.
Mounted that fleabay EMT I bought last week today. First of all, never again with a run-flat. Those sidewalls made it a complete PITA to get on/off the wheel. Second, when we mounted it, the inside of the bead covered the air hole on the pressure sensor. THAT was fun to figure out.
Seems all is well though. I had a look at my back tires today and figure I've only got a couple more months to go before it's wheels and tires time anyway.
