Today a local service was unable to replace my tires and I'm confused. They said they couldn't inflate them properly in order to make them fit the wheels, because they lacked the necessary equipment for this particular case. Also, they said that they were afraid to damage the pressure sensors.
So my question is this: Could my new Goodyear UltraGrip ICE SUV GEN-1 215/60R17 96T tires be somehow problematic for the Fiat 500X Lounge standard factory wheels? Before buying, I checked the basic parameters of the present tires and they all fit, but maybe I missed something.
Also, I'd like to know if those pressure sensors really have a chance to be damaged during the replacement. If so, I may opt to play it safe and go to the local FIAT center, which is quite an expensive option (80 EUR with taxes, as opposed to 25-30 EUR with taxes in normal service shops).
