I have an E450 with dual rear wheel and stainless steel wheel liners.
I have valve extenders on the inner tires which easily protrude through the holes in the liners and the outer tire valve is not extended but is reachable through a slot opposite of the other tire through the dual chuck with a pulling action.
It sounds as though you dont have valve extenders. You should not have to trim the liners. Maybe a picture would help.

I’ve always needed a dual chuck to get at the valves in order to air them up - and sometimes even then I have to pull the wheel liners off to get the right angle on the outer tire stem.
Which reminds me - I have to find a way to notch my liner so I don’t have to pull it off anymore, or find a way to dress up that tire so it doesn’t look so bad if I leave the liner off.
