My Infintewerks LS01's came in and I'm looking for a quality metal valve stem that is also short. Was looking at the flush mount type offered by Gorilla until I realized there is no good way to get an accurate amount of air in the tire since the schrader valve is housed in a separate filler attachment. The valve stems that came with the wheels aren't metal and are too tall (the appear to be similar to Gorilla VS402), you can see the stem behind the face in both valve stem locations. A 90° stem is not going to be used since they have 24k hardware and would disrupt the look. Anybody found a quality short valve stem? Curious to know what you guys have installed. Pics of my valve stem holes and length of current valve stems are below. Any information is appreciated.<br>

Thanks for the direction. They definitely have more variety than any other manufacturer I have ran across so far. Just reached out to them this morning, hopefully they have something that will work. Might run a 90° on the flat section but face it to the rear depending upon the height.
You have any laying around that you could measure? Thanks again.

Shortest Work Valvestems
Work Wheels USA has great customer service and supplied me with the following information about the shortest valvestems they offer that fit most aftermarket wheels.
1. V29A
- Gasket OD: ~13mm
- Gasket OD (step down): ~9mm
- Gasket ID: ~7mm
- Height away from barrel if mounted (includes gasket + valvestem cap): ~23mm
V29A = 27mm overall height (20mm above gasket including gasket thickness, not counting valvestem cap)
V07C = 26mm overall height (19mm above gasket including gasket thickness, not counting valvestem cap)
2. V27C
- Gasket OD: ~15mm
- Gasket OD (step down): ~9mm
- Gasket ID: ~9mm
- Height away from barrel if mounted (includes gasket): ~19mm

Thumbs up for Work Wheels
Ended up going with the V07C's. Just barely short enough.
