I just installed supra tt front calipers thanks to revlis240. After the install on the way home I heard clicking. I realized that my valve stem is hitting the calipers, and my caps are now deteriorated.
My question is this, has any1 came across this problem? What did u do? Or any suggestions other than getting spacers?
i went to Glendale, Just Tires. They said that my valve stems are the shortest they come. they are about an inch long, maybe a little longer. Do you think I would be able to use the "L-Shaped" Valve stems?
Probably a "L" shaped valve stem with less than a 90 degree bend would work. I have a friend that works at Just Tires in the San Gabriel Valley, I can ask him about it for you.
He said that it should work. I don't think Just Tires carries the "L" shaped stems so its probably a good idea to go to another tire shop that caters to the "high performance" crowd.
