[QUOTE="Steve@TF, post: 14912480, member: 40308"] correct. these are the type to get. not necessarily THIS specific one. but this design. the issue with the black rubber valve stems is the diameter is too big for standard valve stem holes. when the tire shops go to put them on, the stem often breaks. ive even broken them myself before. the only solution is to open the hole up more (sketchy), use an adapter, or a different tmps, like the one i posted above. and get this, the oem 13/14 stems, which are $$, are too [I]small[/I]. argh! i had someone recently run into that situation. at least thats the info i was given. paul, the stem didnt hit the brake caliper at all right? it shouldnt since theyre 20s but those black rubber valve stems are really long. im betting the tire shop managed to actually get them in but damaged them. good enough to hold air but they finally gave out after all the pressure/usage. luckily you didnt damage one of those one of a kind wheels. only a few people have these exact wheels but efroeh just got them and put the tpms on that i recommend and it seemed to have worked well for him. he's also running mpss.
