with aftermarket chrome trim rings. But the wheels are fitted with <br>
standard tire valve stems - and they don't protrude beyond the cutout in <br>
the trim rings. So it's almost impossible to fill the tire or use a <br>
pressure gauge. (worth-1000-words photo attached)<br>
<br>
I'm assuming there are longer tire valve stems available? I'm looking at <br>
replacing the tires, so it's a particularly convenient time to get this <br>
right. I've also seen valve stem "extenders" (one of my spare wheels had <br>
one of these fitted) - but this does not look like a decent alternative. <br>
Suggestions?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
