Black TPM Valve Stems

[Offboost]

Hey guys pulling the trigger on some new wheels does anyonevknow who might sell black valves stems for our car that are compatible with the tpm sensor? I dont think chrome stems on a set of black satin wheels will look good.

I think that you are over thinking this

..... black valves stems for our car that are compatible with the tpm sensor? ......

Note that the valve stem is part of the TPMS. It is one integral unit. The OEM TPMS are metal stemmed. I am not sure the black rubber (pull it in the hole until it pops/seats) will mount the same way as the original ones. The originals are a threaded stem with o-rings on either side. Requires a 40 in-lb torque.

Sadly leaned more about these than I wanted when mine were not tight from the factory and left me stranded on the side of the road on my very first drive. Thankfully I stopped quickly and did not ruin the tires or the CF wheels.

Rock Auto sells both types for the GT350, but the black ones are rubber stems. I had those originally on my 6G wheels and a TPMS warning would flash on screen after the tires warmed up. After reading Tomster's post about high tire temps on the track... I would never use or buy the rubber ones again.

Just paint the metal ones black.
