!@#$ Valve Stems
I got my new rims installed today...which lasted about 0.2 miles
The new rims have the valve stem on the inside rather than the outside. As the wheels were rotating, the caliper hit the stem, causing it to seperate. Luckily the other one was still intact, so I duct taped it to the side and limped home with the spare. Has anyone had something similar with aftermarket rims? Do they make extrashort/curved valve stems? Does anyone want to buy a set of 16" rims that can't be used on an SVX?
