Which Metal Valve Stem Compatible With TPMS Sensors for 13 Inch Trailer Wheel
Question:
I recently purchased a Loadstar ST175/80D13 Bias Trailer Tire with 13inch Galvanized Wheel - 5 on 4-1/2 - Load Range D for my 2016 Forest River Flagstaff HW trailer. I also purchased a Tire Minder TPMS system from you with two sensors. The sensors put too much weight on the rubber valve stems and cause the tire to lose air. It has happened on two tires so far, the tire shop I go to said to leave the sensors off. So, I want to purchase metal valve stems as I think theyll hold the weight of those sensors. What metal valve stems should I buy for that wheel?

Expert Reply:
A 13 inch rim such as the # AM3S334 wheel you purchased would have a valve stem hole that's .453 inches in diameter, which is compatible with one of the grommets included with the the # AM20906 metal valve stem you'd looked at. These valve stems would be a better choice for use with a TPMS system.
