4-1 offset....what about the valve stem??

[dawnchris]

Just got a set of ITP T-9 Baja wheels, 4-1 offset. They came with valve stems that stuck all the way out one of the holes in the reinforcing ring. Too many rocks out here for that. I put short ones on, but what a pain in the *** to get to it! I've seen some pics of bikes with 4-1's, and they seem to have the same style stem as what I put on. Can't seem to find a small 90 degree stem.(which would solve the problem) What are you guys using?

Stick a screwdriver behind it and push it out so you can get to it better....;)

Yup, thats what I've been doing, I was just looking for an easier method. With the T-9's, it's really a pain in the butt.
Hey Squeak, That valve stem is along the lines of what I was thinking, I'm just not sure if that one won't mount too close to the rim. It looks like it would put the end of the valve stem WAY close.

ive seen some other ones that hardly stuck out past the rim..but i dont remember where i saw them..ill look for them and see if i can find them
