What size are they? I just bought these 1 and 1/4 lenth ones with a .453" rim hole stems and they are a bitch to put in even with some soap. What is the right size?

 

Anyone??!

i promise pics of sat if someone answers my question! LOL

 

Anyone???

 

shuldnt it have came witht he wheels?
regardless any tireshop should have what you need

 

I'm not installing it at a tire shop. I'm taking them to a friend that works at acura and i want to have everything i need before hand. I just spoke with my friend and he said that the stems are put in by a machine... is this true?

 

No they are NOT put in by a machine. Acura should have the right valve stems. I used to work for Acura and I did my Circuit 8's at my dealership. I used regular oem integra stems.
Good luck.

 

The dealer should have the right size stem.

 

Does it go in smoothly or does it have to be pulled pretty hard?

 

Update: these valve stems do fit. My friend told me he used a tool to put it in.
