Will a Rays valve stem fit 5zigen fn01r-c?
I spoke to Evasive Motorsports today and they couldn't verify. Rays said that it may work but no guarantee since the valve stem was designed for their wheels. Has anyone tested to see if this will work? Has anyone used other valve stems than the provided 5zigen ones? I just don't care for their look and would prefer to run another stem.

Thanks in advance,
Josh

Pics of the Rays valve stem in place. This is such a perfect fit I almost thought there wouldn't be any clearance at first. Never thought I'd be amazed by the quality of a friekin' valve stem

lol, a stem is a stem.

I had some come with my mcgard lugs, and those looked better than the 5zigen ones, so thats what they used.

Check out a set of the Rays next time you can. Like I said, never thought I'd be impressed with the build qaulity of a valve stem until I looked at something other than the junk that discount and car mate offer Those is CHINY mang!
