G614 valve stems
When ordering new G614's several weeks ago, I told the tire dealer that I wanted high pressure stems, for at least 110 psi, and that they needed to be about 2 inches long to allow me to install my TST 507RV monitors. I dropped off the 5 wheels/tires the day before the tires were to be delivered, and when I went the next day, they had regular stems installed. 2 1/2 hours later, I left with the new tires installed on my wheels, with high pressure stems barely long enough to get the cap on the end. Seems these aluminum wheels don't come with stems rated any higher than 80 psi for the E range tires. Replacement stems longer than 1 1/4 inch are hard to get in some areas from what I experienced. Has anybody else run across this problem? I have longer stems ordered from an online site.
