Default Valvestem Interchangability Between Spoon SW388 and SSR Type C/Competition?

Sorry to ask a sort-of off-topic question in here, but I KNOW there are plenty of people in this forum that have probably owned one or both sets of the aforementioned SW388 wheels and SSR Comps.

My question is if I ordered black SSR two-piece valve stems from The Tirerack (for the SSR Comps) to go in my SW388 wheels, will they work okay?

I looked everywhere for black aluminum two-piece stems, but the one guy I found on Ebay dissappeared the next day and I trust The Tirerack anyways.

Thoughts?

I think Rays eng. stems work. I have seen them on the spoons. Don't know about the SSRz

The ones I have at my shop do not fit at all - too big.

Well I just got my stems from Tirerack for the SSR and while they look bad-***, they do NOT fit.



It sucks when the only thing keeping you from mounting brand new Azenis and SW388 wheels are some ******* valve stems.
