Hello all, I have recently purchased a set of Black RSe05 wheels and will be installing them this spring. I have been shopping for valve stems as I have a TPMS system in my car that required the metal valve stem for the sensors. I have the sensors but need to aquire the stems for the sensors. I checked with ECS and all they have available for my 2007 MCS is the standard aluminum colored stems.

Just checking to see if anyone else with my model year has been able to find black valve stems or if its just not an option for me.

 

Never seen black ones, however its easy enough to just mask and coat with spray paint or plasti-dip.

 

Never heard of black TPMS stems. Why not just paint them black. Seems like an easy project to me.

 

Very easy, I'd agree. However, since I am purchasing new valve stems, I'd prefer the stems already black if possible. No sense in making work that's not needed.

The only reason I'm looking to see if black stems are available is because the Tire Rack has black sleaves available when you purchase a wheel/tire package from them. I figured if Tire Rack has the option then there must be one for sale somewhere. Idk. obviously push come to shove I'll just paint them, but it'd be nice to find them and not have to do that.

 

Have the same wheels and black valve stems. Thing is I did not use my existing TPMS kit and purchased them seperate from Tire Rack.

My valve stems are metal, but the cover is plastic.

You could try a piece of black heat-shrink.

 

Painted mine with touch up paint. Caps too. Look great
