Smile Changing Wheels

The 17" Chrome on the wheels on my 2004 EXT is peeling off in sheets and has now gone into the bead seal and causing air leaks that can't be wire brushed and sealed any longer. My '04 has tire sensors.

I have purchased a chrome set of 18" 2007 Escalade wheels, with tires, that appear to have a standard rubber air valve. Could this be another form of sensor? If not can I replace the '07 tire valve with the sensor from my '04?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone today am here to ask something relating to your topic which is that How do you CHANGE WHEEL BEARINGS on a Suzuki Quad? I can see the outside one (there are two per side) but I am not sure how to remove and reinstall them.

Are there special tools needed? What are the steps?

Hey NiCad,
Bad Idea, did you know that there is a recall on the 2007 escalade rims? Mine lasted about 2 years and then would not hold air because of leaks around the bead/rim seal. Good year dealer cleaned/brushed,coated them twice but they kept having problems.
I ended up having to buy a set of Dale Earnhardt 22s from tirerack.com
