Re: Bf Goodrich G-force Tires
Your shearing valve stems? Exactly how fast are you driving your damn truck!?!?!?! 190??? Some tire shops offer high speed metal valve stems, which I have on my Fiero, but was too lazy to throw on my truck. I'm not even sure if they will work on a set of stockers. They should fit in the valve recess, but you may have to add an extension to it.
Which G-forces are you talking about? KDW's? KDWS's? I would've bought the KDW's for my truck if they were readily available at the time. I've heard nothing but good things about them, but guess they're not really "all season", but mainly just a wet/dry tire (hense KDW, Key on Dry/Wet). I wouldnt' think KDWS's (Key on Dry/Wet/Snow) would be necessary in Georgia. I ended up going with Eagle F1 GS-D3's.

Re: Bf Goodrich G-force Tires
I'm sorry, poor choice of words... they are not shearing completely off, only enough for the tire to lose air. I was thinking of sleeving the stems with fuel line to keep this from happening. Is this a common problem with the stock wheels?
The tires I am looking at are the g-force t/a kwds. They are a W-rated tire

Re: Bf Goodrich G-force Tires
I have been holding off until this fall to replace tires, but now I have to bite the bullet and do it. When I bought the truck the previous owner said that it eats valve stems on the right rear. In my mind I said "ok, that doesn't sound like it makes sense", but this was the left front that went and now I am curious as to why this would occur and if it is just my truck or is this common?

X2 on the tires. They are very good wet/dry and have considerably good traction. I've never heard them squeel on a hard launch or turn.atlantasy said:
