Metal wheel valves
« on: January 21, 2010, 10:06:15 pm »
Hi guys, I sold my Monza's a couple months ago which came with the metal valves already on.
I have since got my Interlago's on the car, but they all have the crappy rubber pipes on.
I am looking at putting some smaller tyres on soon anyway, where is the best/cheapest place to get a decent set of these for my car? Have looked on e bay, and they have a few for only about £8, but not sure if I will get exactly what I am paying for with these?

your local quickfit should sell them, they gave me some free (assuming youre talking about the metal sleeves?) theyre not as expensive as £8 though  :chicken:

I got metal sleeves and caps free when I got my tyres done at Kwikfit.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
