Valve Stem Diameter unknown

Looking to finally get around to having metal valve stems installed on the dually rear tires. I have not found a tire place in our area that keeps the metal stems in stock and am looking to purchase them online and have them installed. Is there a difference in the diameters of the stems, or simpler yet, does anyone on the MOC know the hole diameter on the factory rims of a 2007 Chevy Silverado Classic dually or where to find out on the web?

The two common sizes are .453" and .625". I didn't have any definitive luck web browsing for your truck. I'm leaning towards .625", someone will come along with a definite answer.

Wonder if I can bend the rubber stems enough to get a measurement without breaking or cracking them?

IIRC, the larger diameter stem is only for very large trucks and rims.

That is the best solution, I agree, with these prices, I can do that!
