Tire Valve Extenders

[Lfresin1]

A problem all of us 2020 or earlier FR3 owners has is trying to find a solution to valve extenders for the rear outward facing tires.

The inside rear tires have a braided extender, so that works fine.

I added 90 degree extenders on my front tires and that works fine.

I tried the 90 degree extenders on my rear outward facing tires and you can't get the angle right to screw them on, so you'd have to take the wheel cover off and see if the 90 degree extenders clear the holes.

I wonder what others have done to resolve this problem.

I used the 135 Degree Valve Stem Extension. And yes, I did have to remove the wheel covers.

I used these also, but I was able to get them on without removing the wheel covers.

I used the 135° extenders with my tire pressure monitors and they leaked. Now I put them on to add air and then remove them so they don't leak. Still have to take the wheel cover off every time.
