Hey guys, As title really, i have some split rims that need L shaped tyre valves. Motorcycles seem to use these but i can't find any for cars, just wandering if there is a standard fitment that goes into the actual valve.

This is what i need but there only listed for bikes.

I've used the same air compressor for cars/motorbikes and pedal bikes, so probably aye.

Yeah they look the same just a little long, i snapped one of the standard ones which is why i'm frantically searching so i can fit my wheels.

I'd quite like ones the length i posted then use and extended to pump up so there flush as such.

Thanks for the link though very useful, i just need to find the diameter of that larger end but can't anywhere

Yeah Ash, nothing.

I've found the OD of the larger end is 11.3mm used on all motorbikes and cars although some scooters have 8.3mm OD.

Just need to find ones with the right angle now!
