Hi

I've got the 19" Pretoria wheels on my R, what I'm after is a set of "valve stem covers" and "valve caps" in a titanium or a grey colour to cover the horrible black plastic ones

I've done a fair bit of google, amazon & ebay searches and can find nowt - only silver or some weird colour. I don't want to have to remove the tyres to fit a new set of bolt in valves. Does anyone have any ideas where I might try next?

I know many will find this question a bit sad - but this is a finishing touch for the wheels - nothing more :rolleyes:

Best, Ian

you could purchase Richbrook Aluminium Bolt In Valves, they come in various including titanium , might not be dark enough, maybe search stateside sites if the richbrook don't suit

Congrats on your car, surprised more people don't go for pretoria's.

You could always go to a graphic shop or company for a wrap to put over but not much you can do for valve stems without taking apart and fitting new ones.

Hope your loving your car

Thanks for suggestion - but what I don't want to do is fit bolt in valves due to the need to remove tyre - just get the feel it will end up with something being compromised.....:eek:
