My BS meter is pegged off the scale!
I have 17s on my Acura -- actually I have on the 16s with the snow tires and I'm going to get them swapped off in about 20 minutes -- I'm not a fan of 17s in an area with potholes and frost heaves.
But I've not had problems like you have. The tires (Michelins) hold air just fine.
I'm also no fan of Pirellis, I had them on my first Saab -- NEVER again!
Try a different shop and see if they can find what's leaking? Maybe the rims were bent? Bent installing the tires?

"A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." -- Douglas Noel Adams (1952-2001)
