Default Valve Stems

Anyone running 90 degree angle valve stems?? I found some wheels I like and thats the only kind of valve stem they can run + I have those stupid TPMS. I found that iForged has an adapter set to run the TPMS but the TPMS I see them shown with look a lil different from ours.

Any thought or knowledge on this?

ehh, I don't look at it.

The only reason we have those sensors is because nobody checks there tire pressure nowadays...they either don't know how or are too lazy

I check mine every week.

just open the gauges up and put a piece of electric tape over the part where the light would shine through to light up the tpms warning light....can't see the tape after, no light shows through...doesn't look ghetto...problem solved...its what i did, i didn't get the sensors in my new wheels...not necessary...this is the first car i've driven with them, i know how to drive withouth them...the same lol

do you guys think this would work? it's an extension, so basically I could use my TPMS and screw this over and still get it to come over the spoke
