dvs0690 · 10-19-2011, 11:57 PM

so i purchased some 90 degree valve stems from iforged (pic below)

i had my local tire shop install them and in about 2 months all four valve stems were leaking......it seems the part that leaks is the black rubber grommet...i called iforged and they informed me they do not sell that grommet separately and I needed to purchase another set for $75.....i thought i would ask members here if they had any solutions on how to acquire replacement rubber grommet's.....i know iforged sells cheaper valve stems that have the same looking grommets on them....will they fit my 90 degree ones??? can someone shoot me in right direction please....thanks for your time...

here is a pic of the grommet for reference

Try using a little silicone to seal it.
