Anyone use those flush mount valve stems available from CB Performance? Will be driving home a 72 I am purchasing and my Fuchs will be going on, all polished up and thought those flush mount valve stems would look nice. Will take pictures of my trip and will try to post them or send them to someone who can post them. 20 hour trip so wish me luck!

I have used them on dirt race cars to prevent ripping out the stems when banging wheels on the track. There are good ones (Marsh racing tires used to sell good ones) and bad ones (the ones Jegs sells are crap), but they are all a pain in the ass to deal with. Don't loose the adaptor that is required for checking pressure and adding air. I would not use them on a street car, because of what a hassle they are.

Yup, have been talking with him a lot and as you said he seems to be a great guy, arriving at his place sometime Monday afternoon. Want to meet up, I would be happy to spend some time with you, and do a photo up! If you do Mike will know when I am arriving as we have been coordinating this all week. I am getting a ride to upper Canada with a friend who has a Tractor Trailer, all truckers know where that big red apple is!
