I bought a set of these from american racing

Bullitt Anthracite Wheel - 18x8 and Deep Dish Bullitt Anthracite Wheel - 18x10

and a set of 305/35-18 MICKEY THOMPSON ET STREET S/S for rear. Going to use a set of 235/50R18 PSS's on front (have them already).

These are going to be my poor mans big/little set for track use only. I think metal valve stems are required @ 11.50 (or maybe even slower), so figured I'd go straight to them now.

Any idea on which one's? I've tried some cheaper one's on my deck over trailer, as I had cracking issues with todays chinese sourced rubber valvestems, but the metal one's I got are leak prone (have to tighten valvestem nuts crazy tight to get them not to leak).

Now that is on trailer tires that see 80 PSI, so maybe less of an issue on rears, but I plan on pumping up fronts a lot, maybe upwards of to 60 or so, only at the track.

Stop at the nearest truck tire place and ask if you can buy a set of valve stems. Or buy the ones at Advanced Auto (where I bought mine). Or look on Amazon.
