What Metal Valve Stems?

Edit: I measured and they will fit the Mountaineer wheels, but still looking for ones to fit the F250 aluminum wheels.
------------------------
Planning to put on an TPMS system and I am having a hard time finding the right metal valve stems for my 16 inch aluminum Mountaineer (and Ford F250) wheels. I bought some from NAPA, but the problem is the washer on the metal stem is larger than the diameter of the indentation in the wheel around the valve stem. Haven't measured the ones on the 5er yet.

Does anyone here know of metal stems that will without a doubt work on both?

Thanks in advance for advice!

Greg

There are 2 sizes of rubber washers for all wheels- Some metal stems come with both sizes of washers- I got mine at a Firestone store- Don

Thanks guys. Those Myers style look like they would work. I was hoping to find ones that clamp on from the outside rather than the inside, which is what I liked about the ones I got from NAPA. I figured if one starts leaking, it's a lot easier to try to tighten it. Might have to just forget that convenience though.

Metal Valve Stems 0.453” or 0.625” hole ?

I'm scheduled for new Sailuns tomorrow (235/80/16) and I just found out NTB doesn't have or carry any metal valve stems at this store. Would anyone happen to know what size I need? Which size do I need to buy at Auto Zone or NAPA ?
* for a 0.453” or a 0.625” hole ?

If your rig came with the G rated Sailuns, you shouldn't need new stems, maybe just new cores.

All of our Montana’s have had metal valve stems. Discount Tire can help you out.
