valve stem points inside on rear dual tires?

I purchased a 98 Four Winds Class C in December and it has been parked since I brought it home. The snow is about gone so I wanted to check the air in the tires; but the valve stem on the rear outside tires are pointed inward and I can't see the stems on the inside tires - I assume I will have to crawl under the unit to check them.

Is this unusual - are the tires mounted incorrectly - is there a fix for this.
thanks
  • The valves on mine both point outwards and are easy to check the pressure and add air. Sounds to me like someone installed the wheeels wrong. If you have the tools you could jack up the RV and reinstall the wheels, otherwise, I think almost any garage could do the job.
  • This is normal with dual rear wheels. You can buy extenders to route them to the outside; go to a tire shop, they should have them but get the best ones you can get as the cheap ones seem to cause problems.
