Valve Stems for 5.5" Fuchs alloys

We are mounting tires on a set of 5.5" x 15" Fuchs alloys, and the tire store showed me they don't have any valve stems that fit the thick portion of the wheel the stems fit through. Stems that have threaded valves also won't work as the wheels don't present parallel faces for the threaded stems to grip. Does anyone know what type of stems we can find to make these work?
Many thanks, Jim Schrager, South Bend, IN; jimschrager@compuserve.com

Tell the tire store you need valve stems with number TR-415. These DO work. If your local store doesn't have them, go to another store.

This is what the TR-415 looks like:
