Help Please
I put ZO6 chrome wheels on my 98 coupe. Already had 3 of the stems leak. ( I have the sensors on them) Is Discount tire missing something? I have non runflat tires on the car and would like to keep the sensors but 3 flats in the last 10 days is just to much to bear. Could the Chevy Dealership have the knowledge to fix this problem, Discount Tire sure doesn't have a clue. You can not even air up the tire without breaking the seal around the stem.
Help/advice please

A dealer may be of some help provided they know anything about tires, stems and sensors. That's a big IF, though.
Sounds like the stems are just too loose. You can tighten them but be careful not to overdo it. You might also have something of a problem in that there were no Z06s in 1998 and your stems may not be properly fitting into the wheels to begin with.
Other than that.......I dunno :bb
