Bolt on Chrome metal valve stems (opposed to rubber), seen them at Jeg’s but most tire shops should be able to stock or source them.

Or you can just get a set of four Huf RDV021 aluminum valve stems. Same type of valve used on TPMS sensors (minus the sensor) and OEM for Porsche. Much lighter than steel, 1/3 of steel, so less balance weights needed, and the smoother profile and anodized finish keeps cleaner. You can get a set of four under $16 shipped.

I’ve been using these on all my cars including my Carrera. They are a tad bit taller than the one you listed. I found this tire supply network site that has other models as well as my favorite model below.

SKU TV-CPV
High Pressure Chrome Valve Stem (130 psi)

Pretty sure you can get them at most local auto parts stores. We just put some on some BBS wheels

I purchased these on the advice of another pelican thread, installed them on my Fuchs over a year ago and they've worked flawlessly since. https://www.ebay.com/itm/383124436278. They look great (to me) against my rims' anodized finish.

You would think so, but most shops don’t carry what they might call decorative valve stems. They are usually just old truck style rubber or modern TPMS setups.

You gotta ask for the high pressure stems
