Who's rockin custom valve stem caps?

[BADwayz]

I always enjoy seeing what people find to use for valve stem caps. I have some custom hand made Schlitz beer can caps, ha...dont mind the dirty wheels, I haven't cleaned them in weeks.

Don't know, I bought them from someone with smaller hands and a lot more patience than I.

Basically you just need an end mill bit and bottom tap that are the right size. Then you can make just about anything into a valve stem cap.

It's not hard at all to make custom caps, but is a nice little detail touch that most people overlook.

agreed. I wish I could make wheels my valve stems.


[edit] Anyone else thinking what I'm thinking?

Its not impossible, replica wheel shaped valve caps on your wheels would be kinda cool, ha.

[Dr.AK]

Lol, those beer caps are funny.


Tbh, I'm not really a fan of custom valve stem caps. Have not yet seen a set that makes me want a set of custom ones. I prefer some ordinary metal stems and caps, I prefer the simple look.

I've been subscribing to too many Kustom rat/hot rod rags the last few years, they have some pretty cool styles I have been thinking about a lot lately, ha.

Those wheels (and valve caps) are sick!

[Digitalwave]

I had bullets on the Rials, but I can't find a picture of them.

[southpaw]

got some grenades, but haz no piktars

[Stolzy]

saw some of those grenade ones today. theyre sick

[Travis]

I would be afraid of getting a custom set snatched.

[BADwayz]

Thats why they make locking ones too, and at $20 or less, it's not a bad loss.

[darkdrifter]

the schlitz can ones are rad.
I have the original SSR ones for my wheels, but I'm always to worried about someone nabbing them.

[Stephen]

Shit, i need to get some of those grenades.

[SlowProgress]

^I have a set of red ones but they don't fit on my stems for some reason

[Royal_T]

man I want to make some...gots to think of some thing different:shifty

[southpaw]
