I'm New Here
Need some input on the valve stems on the main wheels. The stems want to rest on the hub. Hubs and tubes go together well but as the tube fills the stem rotates over to the hub. Filled to 25 PSI it’s very difficult to get the air nozzle on the stem. Logically the fix is to rotate the tube the opposite direction of the stem’s rotation toward the hub. But the tube seems to re- seat itself in the center when inflated. Need some suggestions to make the stems come straight out of the rubber hub gromet.

Update: sent Vans tech help an email. The response is that the tubes do not fit the tires well and there is no "fix" for this. Are you guys just living with the valve stem resting against the hub?
