The Lair

Can you push for more caster and bring the wheel forward?

 

Ummmmmmm mebbe seen them

There is another company that has a similar valve stem but you don't have to drill out the valve stem hole. All the monster valves are doing is similar to going to the large stem size that they use on larger AG, OTR, and OHV construction equip.

Other company with similar product but uses regular stem size hole.

That’s too large of a margin of error for my liking. These are only getting torqued to 23 ft lbs. especially being something so incredibly critical.

Doubt it, not enough to make a real difference. I’ll just cut more out of the way if needed.

you don’t have to drill out for the monster valve either, at least on the kmc wheels. I wish I had the money for them right now so I could install as I swapped tires around. Would save future Randy effort.

 

All this talk about regular holes and drilled holes...

Ummmmmm 30 sec in and he metioned drilling the wheel........The monster valves require 1/2 hole a stem hole is only 11mm

 

They have a few different variations of monster valves, to included a kmc specific one that just drops right in.

Ok different product than the video you posted . Haven't seen the new ones like that yet. I'll stick to a rubber stem sticking up like that and keeping a colby valve set on hand much cheaper if it gets broken. Seen several stems get knocked off in that position both rubber and TPMS. The original where you are drilling a hole and such you can tuck it into a spoke area and protect it.

 

Wait until you get the wheels in hand. There’s zero chance it’s getting knocked off, it’s incredibly tucked away. And I was sharing the video to show what monster valves are and how they work to anyone else reading along.

 

Actually you can kinda see it here. It’s a good couple inches deep and also hidden by the ring once installed.

 

That looks like me on cold winter mornings...

 

I dunno, I don’t see the resemblance. Looks too clean. Maybe if there was a bunch of dirt caked on the wheel it would be more comparable.

 

Hey, I know more about your wheels than you do.... So HA!

 

But, the real question is, do you know more about the girth of monster valves?

 

Jerry, you say the most arousing things!

 

"What size?"

Literally in the fucking title my dude.

 

But math is hard!

 

I almost replied “actually it’s 33.25x11.6” when he said “so 33s”

 

Gotta put it in "Went to the moon" units!

 

i was about to say, it’s really not a 33....lol. You should have corrected him!

the 295/70/17 geolander is around 33.5
