[QUOTE="Oldjeep, post: 1465311, member: 93148"] Couple things - Doesn't take much effort to pull a rubber valve stem all the way through the wheel - done it a few times. Really easy if you have put any sort of lube on it. Decent metal valve stems have rubber on the inside and sometimes out, so it wouldn't be tough to get it to seal if nut was loose. Inside is the better place for wedge type seals. [/QUOTE]
