Tire Valve Hole Size OEM BBS ???
I am trying to buy some all metal valve stems.

There appear to be two different hole sizes used in wheels.

Has anyone measured the valve stem hole on the OEM BBS?

Thanks

mitsuatb, I'd help you out as my BBS are unmounted at the moment, but the OEM valve stems are still installed on the rims. What are the two sizes you are looking at for the metal stems?

Stems
a .453 inch grommet and a .625 inch grommet.

Not sure if there are metric sizes.

The OEM stem on the SE BBS measures 15mm (.591") at the exterior of the rim and 17mm (.669") at the base of the plug on in the interior of the rim. It is marked with the code TR413 which I believe corresponds to a .453" size.
