raffa_mk Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 looking into purchasing some anti theft tyre valve caps, they noramlly screw on then you turn the screw that looks like an alan key fitting on it, do these work, and do they seeze up or mess up your tyre valve etc? as i have standard ones i have and 2 are missing, i am looking to either getting green metal ones or TRD ones.

Liam_D Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Plastic valve caps are the only things that should be used! I change like 10valves a day because of people fitting rubbish metal valve caps that seize on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
