Correct Valve Stem/Tube Type?
 

For some reason I've managed to make it this far in life without learning how to match valve stems with wheels.


Ordering tubes for a new set of Coker Tires that will be mated to 1935 16" wires... I see that tubes are offered in Center Stem, Center Bent Stem, and Offset Stem.


Which is the correct choice for these wheels?

Look at your wheels.

Thanks.



I guess these wheels are all offset, where Model A are all center stems.



It turns out I ordered tubes with the wrong offset valve stem, TR440. These stems are too long for these wheels.



Looking on the Coker website I ordered another set of tubes with a TR13 stem which should hopefully be correct. Hopefully this random information helps someone out in the future.
