Sounds to me like a bunch of incompetent clowns did your tires. Wow, just wow.

If the valve stems break off, it's a pretty good guess that there won't be much air in the tires quite soon thereafter. Logically it would seem that the tire unseating itself is a result of the valve stem failure, which itself could be due to an inappropriate valve stem or inappropriately heavy attachment (an extension?) put on it.

Oh yeah now that you mention it, they had big extensions on the inner valve stems so the inner tire could easily be aired up. The big extension along with the vibration could very well be why they broke off.

The shop that fixed it during my trip didnt use any extensions. So now the valve is pretty deep in there. Im not sure how i would fish a tire inflator inside the wheel to adjust the air pressure.

And to the guys who are asking what shop/clowns did the tires initially, its a local long island shop that i really dont want to bash because they were always so good to me prior to this issue. They still are, they really try to fix it they just keep failing. Its a heavy duty truck shop that works on buses and big rigs all day so i dont know why they cant nail down my rv issues. I think they are just used to working on nice newer trucks and not peice of **** 25 year old p30’s that jump lanes when they hit a pebble. Beleive me i am super frustrated and i appreciate the sympathy. I will be ordering centramtic rings when i get home. If that doesnt improve the situation im selling it and buying something on a ford platform.
