Default Valvestem replacement for Japanese rims

I have a set of Japanese rims and the valvestems are bent and O-rings worn.
Looking to replace them but my local tire shop doesn't have the size.
Does anyone know the standard Japanese size and where to get them?
Thanks!

rim bully the link you posted only carries standard wheels with bigger .450 dia. holes. with ssr's and the like you need a .303 dia.

ive found this out the hard way last month.

2nd life, they sell them on ebay just look for "enkei style" valve stems.
i didnt care for any of the designs so i bent over and ordered BBS stems from here http://stores.channeladvisor.c...Stems/

Appreciate you guys for the info. I'm gonna measure mine closely and figure out which ones I need. Probably the small diameter ones. Thanks!
