DaFreak Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 Hi All, It looks like our 2010 valve stem caps are different and have an additional 3/16" portion of the valve stem to cover. Maybe this is a GT500 thing? So who sells caps to fit our 2010's? Do you have some pics? Thanks, DaFreak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2nd2none Posted May 1, 2010 Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 http://www.americanmuscle.com/valve-stemcap-cobra.html I got these but I also have new aftermarket valve stems/sensors. I've never heard anything about caps being different for 2010 before though. 1 of the customer pics in the link looks to be on a 2010 wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaFreak Posted May 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2010 inyadreems, your pic shows what I am talking about perfectly. Notice the exposed brass portion of the stem that is not covered up by the cap. I know this is past the threads but the factory caps are long enough to cover area and I would like to find something similar (only aftermarket ).

inyadreems Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 So whats the issue? You don't like the way it looks ? I have had them on for a while now with no TPMS or air issues. I know others that have them on a 2010 GT500 and have no issues also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never had the problem since when I got new rims I bought new metal valve stems/tpms sensors. I took your picture and circled the part that I think he doesn't like and I must admit it does look a little weird. it would be better if the cap was longer or the valve stem was shorter so the portion I circled wasn't visible.

inyadreems Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 I agree...........a little black touch up paint and problem solved. Now I have something to do today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaFreak Posted May 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 Yep, I was just thinking about the look of the caps. I would sure like to find something that covered up the additional section of the stem. In the meantime a little paint is a good idea too.
