Question:
Will your metal valve stems work on my wheels. The ones on the wheels I believe are half rubber and brass they aren’t as flimsy as a full rubber stem even with my TPMS sensors. Buy looking at your video on installing them I think my problem is there is not a flat surface. Thanks

Expert Reply:
You could use the Americana # AM20906 on your wheels, but your TPMS system is not designed for metal valve stems unfortunately; those sensors can only be used with the brass/rubber stems. If you wanted to switch to metal valve stems you would need the flow through sensors like the Flow Through Tire Sensors for TST TPMS - Qty 2 # TST-507-FT-S2.
If you check out the end of that video these valve stems are installed on a similar wheel, and I've linked that video for you to check out.
