The TPMS I got with my Zumo 590 clearly states to only use them on metal valves... I get the reason, due to the extra weight on the end of the valve could cause the valve to fail. Aren't all tire valves a combination of metal and rubber? I really hate to have to swap valves out just for this.... ::010::

Anyone use these on the stock S10 valves and have a problem?


update: upon some interweb research I see there is no getting around it.

So now I'll take suggestions on what metal valve to get.....can these be swapped out with out fully removing the tire ???
