I bought a Brand New set of (4) Dayton Wire Wheels for my car from Dayton Wheel Concepts, Inc in Dayton Ohio. Now after spending $2000.00 for the Daytons and a $1000.00 for Brand New set of (4) Vogue Tires. I went to Pep Boys 6631 W.Ogden Ave. in Berwyn IL. 60402 to have them mounted and balanced since I live nearby. I was informed by Dayton that the rims where already balanced, and when the tires where to be mounted on the rims that they would need to be balanced due to the tires. Now after sitting their for almost 2 hours they mounted everything. Considering I'm a mechanic and I worked for a Mechanic Shop with Towing and Tire Repair I knew it didn't take that long to change rims and tires. One month with all Brand New Rims and Tires I started to have problems, tires going flat and lossing air considering the car wasn't driven much like 10 miles a week and sat in the garage. So I went back to Pep Boys and they found the leaks and they where coming from the spokes?! Now when I got them the had 1" inch of black sealent over the spokes to seal them and I did take pictures of them when I got them. After continuing to have problems I took them to my job where they could be looked at to see what the issue was. After taking the tires off I could see the problem these ******* **** Heads took and grinded off all the black sealent that sealed the spokes!! Now to fix the problem I have to send them back to Dayton to be resealed at my expense or put in inner tubes.
