Default Need extension to put air in tires

With my iForged wheels the connector for adding air to the tire is actually where the rivets are. It is recessed a bit and very difficult for me to get my fingers in there to unscrew the cap, and next to impossible to get something onto it to fill it up with air. There is one gas station with a compressor nozzle that is slender enough to fit there but my home compressor and portable compressor absolutely wont fit. Is there an adapter to hook to the compressor to get into that tight spot?

Where did you get them from? Also what are they called so I know what to ask for? Any place online I can order them from because the Autozone doesnt carry it. I havent tried pepboys yet

Name your price. It is just such a PIA to fill up with air. I have to drive about 15 minutes out of the way because this gas station has a skinny nozel that fits right in by the rivets. Can you post a pic of what it looks like?
