where to get rigid valve stem?
anyone know where I can get the rigid valve stems in and around Los Angeles, Pasadena, or Glendale area? I have a set of RUF wheels and don't know how long to get them. The last set I purchased were too short and went to waste.
Thanks, Jeff |

Typically, rigid valve stems are sold in a variety of lengths by motorcycle shops and dealerships.

Less brakes, more gas!

I got mine at the local Auto parts chain... both chains in my area carry them... in pairs??? Came with two sizes of rubber gromets for different size holes. Solved a real problem of loosing air on my rears... When I was at the tire shop I used some non-hardening sily-cone and smeared it into the edge/groove on the inner side of the rim. Just a thin coat that I made sure hit all the grooves on the ssealing surface. I think I lost 1/4 lb the 1st 6 months
