[QUOTE="dirtlvr, post: 1832426, member: 51004"] I bought those to try out. They worked great for checking/setting tire pressure. I then installed my factory valve caps on them. The next day all my tires were low. The factory caps must push down on the top of these just enough to allow them to slowly leak air. I don't think you are supposed to run caps on these and that was my mistake. Instructions in link don't say anything about putting a cap on. But like you, I was trying to avoid seeing chrome. Maybe there are some different caps out there with a flat profile that will work with these? [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.alligator-valves.com/fileadmin/user_upload/Alligator-Valves/Downloads/Product_Updates_US/Alligator-V2B-2020.pdf[/URL] Otherwise maybe try the "economical" DS-P version which are black and plastic, but I can only find them in 50 count & still have a chrome center head [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.myerstiresupply.com/about-us/Brands/Alligator[/URL] [/QUOTE]
