Brazil Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 My Wheels has been recently been re-furbished but the firm that did the work did not find a suitable replacement valves and because of it I am getting leaks in all 4 wheels. I've tried to phone Speedwells but they are not answering I guess they are closed on Saturdays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suprasurrey Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 I have Volk GTC wheels and bought aluminium threaded valves which have never leaked. I think that they were made by a company called `Richbrook`. You could try demon tweeks as I think that`s where I got mine from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yakky Posted February 25, 2012 Share Posted February 25, 2012 Why can't they find replacement valves? Can't they be bothered to order them? Hope work wasn't expensive mate.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
