Best Spare Tire Valve Extension for Jeep Wrangler JK Spare Tire with Cover
Question:
Is this extension flexible enough to be used on a Wranglers spare tire without having to remove the wheel cover? Thank you!

Expert Reply:
I have a solution for you, and the Slime Dually Valve Extender Kit # SLM20140 is definitely going to be flexible enough to use on a Jeep Wrangler's covered spare tire since it is a rubber hose. However, since it's only 8-1/2" long, I don't think it's going to be long enough to stick out behind the rear of the tire and allow you access to the extended valve stem very easily-especially if you have larger tires than the stock tires that normally come on the JK.
For that reason, I recommend going with a longer extension like the 36" extension found on the Wheel Masters Spare Tire Inflation Kit # WM82286-R . These have the same rubber flexible hose as found on the Slime Valve Extender Kit, only significantly longer to allow you access to the valve stems while your spare is covered up.
