These do also add a bit of girth to the valve stem, so as long at there was enough clearance on the wheel, it likely would help for that case. You can also look at the RPV Rapid Precision Valves. They have two different lengths depending on how your specific wheels measure.
I was on the fence for quite a while debating on if I should wait for the refresh and see what that was all about, or pull the trigger on an R1 Shop vehicle that was pretty much exactly what I wanted. I decided to go for the latter, confirming my R1 Shop vehicle in early May and took delivery a...
Yes, but you'd have to A) Recognize these and B) Know how to use them and C) Not be within earshot of anyone else because they let air out fast and it's pretty loud.
I think if someone really wanted to deflate your tires, they're far more likely to either slash them or cut the valve stem with a...
Yeah... As great as they look, they're doomed. ? I didn't get this truck to cruise pavement alone, and I know these rocks are going to have their way with the wheels given enough time. Ah well!
While it does add a little bit of length, it's probably not as much as my first picture makes it seem. Here's my best attempt at showing the amount of protrusion for you all. It's quite minimal, but totally understand wanting to play it safe on that front. I do carry a Colby Emergency Valve in...
Quick Review and Testing
I just got the Apex Designs USA RCV Rapid Connect Valves (no affiliation) and they are better than I was expecting! They are a screw on fast deflator for your tires to make airing down quick. They have a collar that can be slid outwards that has several holes all around...
