pbryant_knight Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Hi All, I bought some new 19" Antera Magnesium alloys the other day from ebay and where the valve should be there is this All the tyres are fully inflated and at best guess i think you may need a key to get the cover off and somehow access the valve maybe? Has anyone came accross this before? Cheers Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdavies Posted December 5, 2012 Share Posted December 5, 2012 Yeh you need a tool to remove and then you screw a valve in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iky Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Could be like one of these type affairs - http://www.richbrook-styling.co.uk/wheel-valve-caps-valves-tyre-pressure-gauge/flush-fit/80 You might need a "snake eyes" screwdirver bit to undo it if a pair of circlip pliers wont do the trick.

mattdavies Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Ask the guy you bought them off, he should have the bits. Unless they are stolen goods ( or he lost them ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbryant_knight Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 Messaged the guy twice now and had no reply. Damn it. Just might get rid and put normal valves on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibrar Jabbar Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Antera don't make magnesuim alloys, however you can get the adapter kit from http://www.elitedirect.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbryant_knight Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 I think the style of wheel is called Magnesium. Seen some the same for a BMW called that on the bay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/20-Antera-Magnesium-Alloy-Type-209-2x10J-2x8-5J-Refurbished-Rims-/290823482019?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Trims_Car_Rims_ET&hash=item43b66e2aa3. other companies mark them as a Antera 309 which i'm presuming is the correct make and model.
