Valve Stems

Mine have no valve stem holes so I don't think that can happen to mine. I have seen them with valve stem holes (they are made and fit differently) and those may be the ones you are talking about.

When I first got mine I worried about them coming off and losing them. Every time I drove it I went around and tapped them down tighter. Now I only do it about once a month. None have come off.

I think braided hose cover could alleviate that concern and possibly look cool as well.

Yesterday, I detailed the inside of Roxy and today, I spent approximately one hour at NTB having one of her chrome rims buffed so that her new shoes will maintain 30# of air pressure. Yeah, she is pretty special to me and I love my Red Roxy.

I cleaned out the inside of mine today. Then I noticed that my driver's side headlight was starting to become a little hazy and yellow. So I pulled out two dry cloths and some Blue Magic Headlight Lens Restorer and my headlight now looks good as new.

Cleaned a Super Large Sea Gull Turd off the Driver side window! How the heck does a bird crap on the side window? Do they fly low then swoop up like a dive bomber? WTF !
Damn great shot but still sucks monkey balls when you cannot see out the side window and have to clean that crap off!

Ran the snot out of it trying to keep up with a colleague's Lotus Elise on I-395.

Its amazing how well the engine meant for a Corolla can move one of those flyweight critters, if only Toyota could build something besides rental cars...they might not be the automotive equivalent of "sensible shoes".

Finally installed my headliner. It's wrapped in Mongolian faux fur, and looks amazing when i crank up the bass. My HHR is built mostly for audio demos, and this actually "shows" the sound waves. Definitely have to load up a video in the near future
