Valve Stems and Caps for Chrysler Crossfire

The valve stems and their accompanying caps on your Chrysler Crossfire are some of the smallest yet most important parts of your vehicle. They work in concert with other parts of your wheel system to help your tires retain pressure and function at peak efficiency.

Valve stems are a vital part of your Crossfires tires. Its important to understand how they work and what benefits they bring to your vehicle. There are several reasons to get replacement or backup tire valves:

• The inner workings of valve stems allow the air to get into your tires and stay pressurized once it is there.
• If you dont have valve stems on hand or yours are in need of repair, your tires cannot stay pressurized. Driving on a tire that is not pressurized properly puts a strain on your Chrysler.
• Driving for any length of time on a flat tire can cause irreparable damage to the wheel. Having working tire valve stems can help you avoid future repairs or tire replacement.
• While valve stems seal air inside your wheel, the caps work to keep dust and other debris from getting inside the core of the valve itself.

As you drive your Crossfire, the valve stems will be exposed to weather and debris from the road. This is natural, but it means that you may eventually need to purchase new tire valves or caps to replace your old ones. There are ways to check your stems for maintenance and steps you can take to install new valve stems when necessary.

• If your Chrysler Crossfire is equipped with a monitoring system, this accessory can alert you when any of your wheels are under-inflated, something that may cause damage to your tire valves.
• You can purchase a universal Chrysler pressure sensor kit, or TPMS, to check the valves on your Crossfire.
• When checking the air in your wheels, you can manually flex the tire stem valve to check for deterioration. It is natural for these accessories to experience some deterioration over time. Once this becomes noticeable to you, its time to install replacement stems and caps.
• If you need to replace your valves, first remove the tire from your Crossfire.
• After removing the rim, you can pull the tire valve free and put in the replacement in the same spot, pushing it into place firmly.

Tire valves and caps come in a variety of materials and types. Knowing some of the most common materials and features can help you choose the ones that work for your Chrysler Crossfire. Available options include:

• Tubeless rubber snap-in valves
• Metal clamp-in valves, often made of steel or aluminum for extra durability
• Chrysler anti-theft tire valve caps for added security
