Default Michelin pilot sport cup 2 ZP

I'm looking to get all possible advice to mount correctly my new PSC2 ZP tires on my cup 2012 GM factory wheels.

Tires are mounted on the wheels, but I'm not able to seat him with air.

Any help woulb be really appreciate

Thx,

Seb

You mean that you can't get the tire's beads to fully seat with the outer beads of the wheels?


Are you using any lubricant on the tire beads? If not, you should. Do you have the cores installed in the valve stems? If so, you shouldn't. With the cores in place, air cannot get into the tire quickly enough to push the beads out to meet the wheels.

Hope this helps........
