If you own a set of ELITES, please help.

I have a set of ELITE wheels and one of my valve stems broke and i can't find anywhere that has a replacement for them. They are the bolt in type and abnormally smaller in diamter( the flange and the stud itself).

If you have had any problems like this please help!

these are the wheels.

you obviously havent come into contact with breaking an elite valve stem. hes not joking, no one has stems that will work (unless phase2 still has some)

but drilling the hole out slightly bigger to put a standard valve stem in works. mine hold air just fine...see the sig?
