    [QUOTE=Jerryr;106571]I'm looking at installing TPMS add on sensors to my 2017 Reflection 337RLS trailer. To do so I want to replace the rubber valve stems with metal stems to prevent failure of rubber stems due to movement

    Jerry. Did you ever find your metal metal valve stems. I have the same rig built about the same time and was thinking of upgrading my tires, metal valve stems, and a TPMS system. Any ood for thought on this matter. Just started my research. TKS

    Tire Dealer had metal stems in stock and installed them.

    These https://www.amazon.com/Inner-Mount-M...dp/B06XRWR1BC/ look like the valve stems the dealer installed when they mounted my new tires.

    They tighten via nuts on the inside of the rim.

    Hello! We are new to the forum and this is my first post - hope it goes through. Can anyone tell me if the wheels on our 2018 337RLS are high pressure wheels suitable to taking 110psi? Looking to possibly replace the Westlakes and going to a LRG tire. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

    Yep,
    Sometimes it takes quite a bit of searching to find the threads with the info.

    I have the 507 TPMS https://mechanicguides.com/best-tire-pressure-systems/ on my BC and it's a great system. Mine are not the type you can air up, I have to remove them to adjust air pressure
    When I changed out the blowmax tires for Sailuns the tire pressure jumped up to 110 psi .
    My local tire shop used high pressure rubber valve stems and within a month I had two of the valve stems blow out.
    I then had them install all metal stems and have not had any issues since.
    The TPMS alerted me and I was able to get off the road into a truck stop and change the tire before any damage to the tire

    Thanks for the heads up Lokerdy! My tire dealer installed high pressure rubber stems also and so far so good. I am going to get the metal stems and carry them with me - just as a back up. After camping season ends, I'll switch over to the metal ones. Stay safe.
