Valve extentions
Need valve extentions and wondering if ridged or braded on the inside rear would be best. Need to check and air without the trouble.

We are looking at TPMS for our 26 foot Ford-450 Class C. Would a TPMS work with these valve systems? Thanks
Yes.
I think you'll find some discussion, perhaps on the suppliers' web pages. A TPMS "cap" isn't much heavier than a metal Air-Through.
I had our original tires balanced after installing BORG valves on the rear and new metal valves on the fronts and spare. From a theory standpoint, we should re-balance. Personally, I don't think the metal valves we use on fronts and spare is enough heavier than a rubber valve with a brass core, to require balancing. The custom rear valves have some heft to them, but we mount them opposite each other. So for front and rear, I believe that if we mark the tire and rim so they go back the way they came off, leave balance weights in place, and match marks on re-mounting, we're OK not balancing just because of the new valves.
