Default RV-10 Nose wheel tube and tire question

I've read several posts about the tube valve coming very close to the wheel pant bracket. I'm going to change the nose tire soon to a Goodyear Flight Custom III (same as the mains) along with a leak-guard tube. Does the standard TR-67 valve work OK. I did put the EASY INFLATE tubes on the mains.

I have the standard Vans issued nose wheel. Adding the Matco axle spacer at the same time

Thanks
Gary

The Matco axle will be longer on one side (wheel not centered in fork). Should be enough valve stem room if you install the axle with safety bolt side on the valve stem side.
