Hello everyone. I am a long time Chevy guy but this is my first post on this forum. I have a '08 Equinox Sport with 18" wheels. I have been issues with losing air (all four tires) and have had the car at the dealer for several attempts (over the last couple years) at remounting with very limited improvement. I'm fed up with the problem and the low profile tires because of this and the fact they have such a small volume of air that they fluctuate so much with temperature changes and loss so much pressure so fast. Anybody have any similar experiences with the low profile SPORT tires?
My real question however is this. I have decided to replace the wheels and tires with Equinox LS OEM 16" wheels and new tires to get tires with more volume of air. Has anyone done a wheel size change that requires a speedometer correction and is it difficult to have done?? Thanks for your input. BTW if anyone is interested in buying a set of 4 excellent condition 18" OEM Equinox Wheels let me know cause I will be selling mine (I'm throwing in the tires for free [`34,000 miles] and decent tread).
