Wheel Liners and Valve Extenders

[rtfireman]

I am still waiting for delivery of my new Sunseeker 2650 but have a question
about wheel liners and valve extenders which I see are standard on this model. My reading on liners indicates that use with extenders is not good as
a lose of the liner will take the extender with it. Result instant flat tire or two. Does anyone know the official FR position on this and any thoughts. Thanks from a soon to be owner.

Could you please give further details. When you say, wheel liners, are you talking about the wheel hub caps?

[rtfireman]

No I think that these are the full wheel liners. My option sheet lists "stainless steel wheel liners".

To me, there just fancy hubcaps. They have a similar shape of the wheel. The extenders don't protrude very far and sit in a rather large opening. I don't think the extenders would take a hit on mine.

[MrJoe]

Here's mine...

Yes I think that is the type of wheel liners that is being talked about. I think that the concern is with the rears that have the long flexible metal extenders. The extenders may also be attached to the hub in the middle.

Drill a small hole on the hub cap
