Expert Reply:

The Dexstar # AM20746 16x6 trailer wheel has a valve stem hole that's .625 of an inch in diameter. For a valve stem, I'd recommend the Americana # AM20906, which fits .625 or .453 inch diameter stem mounting holes.

I've linked to a demonstration/installation video for the wheel and the valve stem I recommended you.
