    What metal valve stem fits our old ralley wheels?
    I'm looking at tr416, but one review said "wont fit stock wheels.

    A tr416 is a bolt in valve stem. I don't see why it wouldn't work. Although I have to question why would you want a bolt in valve stem rather than just a 413 with a chrome sleeve?

    It's not about looks, but rather a NHRA safety rule:

    TR-416 should work. I'd put the long grommet in (or 2 short grommets & trim the flange off the outer) so the washer doesn't sit against the wheel. PM me if you want me to send you what you need. It'll be less $ than you can buy them for anywhere else & higher quality parts.

    I have 8 wheels. But I'll take 10 and send you a m.o.
