Re: Where to buy the correct valve stems for Alcoa dually wheels

I had new BFG ATs put on my old Vectors at Discount and asked them for metal stems. They said they did not carry them???
I will bring my own next time.
Valve stems for autos have been .453" or .625" forever.
When I was a tire buster in the 70s only ford trucks had the big hole.
Many metal stems come with both size gaskets.
I have a set of Alcoas in the garage with stems in them still. I think they were off a GMC front drive motorhome. I will try to get a measurement this weekend.
