Would these work on my Chrome ZR-1's?

I found these online and though it would add a nice touch to my wheels rather than having a stem sticking out. Anyone have these or know it they would work with Chrome ZR-1 wheels?

I think they look cool, just don't ever lose that filler tube.

Although I don't know if they would work or not, for that price - I'd pick up a set and try them..........if I myself had chrome ZR1's.

I don't see why they wouldn't. For 15 bucks you really can't go wrong. No big loss if they don't work. Let us know if you decide to get them.

I agree. Not being able to easily find one makes it a sketchy deal.
Besides that, I like it.

Thumbs down Re: Would these work on my Chrome ZR-1's?

Been there, done that.

Had them on my chrome 16" T/A wheels... held air for ~1 winter then started leaking BAD at the track one night. Couldn't get them to hold air above 15psi so I had to borrow a buddies spare and get home on 2 skinnies.

Don't waste your time... they do NOT work like an integrated flush-valve. The rubber gasket is useless after a few heat cycles and repeated air cycling... any movement to get the compressor/tube into the valve caused leaking.

A buddy of mine worked at Les Schwabb for a few years and TOLD me to get them off the rim ASAP... 2 weeks later I'm looking for a second spare to make it home from the track.
