In regards to trailer wheels, there are two valve stem hole sizes. There is a 0.453" valve stem hole used on 15" and smaller wheels and 0.625" used on 16" and larger wheels. The Dexstar Silver Modular Trailer Wheel part # AM20760 is a 16" wheel therefore has a 0.625" valve stem hole. There are no 16" trailer wheels with a 0.453" valve stem hole. This poses an issue for the Ford Factory TMPS and one many others have run into this as well. Therefore, if you wish to run TMPS on 16" or larger wheels you'll have to go with an aftermarket TMPS for which I recommend the Tuson Towable Tire Pressure Monitoring System part # 335TPMS4WIVS.
