Valve extensions for Alcoa wheels
Tire man says his won't work. The degree of difficulty as we all know is high to air up the inside duals.

Try Borg then. I really thought Chuck and Borg both had kits for aluminum wheels.
But aren't your INSIDE rear duals Steel?
There's been a flurry of tire/valve/wheel issues here lately. Some Chevy, some Ford, and Ford with Four Hand Holes may work out differently than Ford with the common Eight Round Hand Holes.
Call Borg, ask for Bill, see what he says or ask him to call you back.
That said, NAPA has some truck tire stuff that might help.
New information: Our "Domestic" (Ford, Chevy) wheels use .453" valve stem holes in the rims. Large truck wheels use .625" holes. Some parts have adapters to serve both sizes. Use the adapter you need, discard the other. Just be sure your solution doesn't turn out to be .625".
