New tire problem

Post by planman »

Newbie here....Had two new tires put on my daughter's vibe yesterday. Left the tire place...everything fine. My daughter takes a drive on the Interstate last night and calls me and says both tires are flat! Of course, both tires ruined. Could it be that the tires weren't seated correctly? or what? HELP AND IDEAS PLEASE!

Welcome to GenVibe!!! Quote, originally posted by planman » Could it be that the tires weren't seated correctly? or what? Well that really sucks!!! Could be that the valve stems wern't installed properly or they never took the wire wheel to the inner edge of the rim.Have you been back to the tire shop yet?
