Valve stem replacement

Having problem finding valve stem replacement for U320 2001 aluminum wheels. My local tire shop is having trouble Sourcing any. If somebody can point me in the right direction.

I would never use that tire shop again. Those are very standard valve stems used in every semi that has aluminum wheels.

Agree with Big dog, for a shop to come up with a no answer for that they certainly can't perform when it comes to the harder things.

I get our tires at Grismer Tire in Dayton Ohio. The have several locations that handle car/SUV tires and one that specializes in heavy-truck tires. You need to find a place that specializes in heavy-truck tires. They will have the valve stems and associated items you need in stock.

I had one of the valve stems changed and the tire mechanism walked over to the shelf and picked one up that was identical to what I had and put it on--my point is if a tire shop don't have one on the shelf you may need to think about changing tire shops
