Great video as usual. Question for you. How do you find the Bridgestones for daily use? I currently have ps4s but want something stickier for occasional track use but mainly street. Opinion?
Probably not a good idea for daily use. I also have them on an extra set of wheels for my 124, but swap out to a performance all season for daily use and only use the 200tw tires for fun drives.
I am a tool junkie, however before I buy I have to determine cost to benefit. You probably spend at least $40 for this. On a one time basis that would not make sense. In my 60 years of car maintenance, I seldom had a tire problem exclusively valve stem only. So not sure this purchase makes a lot of economic sense. Also for 2006 or newer vehicles have TPMS so you cannot use this. I have a 2003 Ford Explorer with TPMS. I am also suspect that using the super lube could potentially make sealing a problem. In fairness I will also go to the proverbial "ends of the earth" to fix something before paying someone else to do it. Sometimes I win, sometimes it costs me more than its worth.
True, it's not going to work with a TPMS valve stem. I have a lot of cars without them, tho. Usually on't even put them in the modern cars 😅 I like to manually check tire pressures often.

WHAT DO YOU DO IF THE VALVE HAS A SENSOR ON IT ?
Not this kit.
Tire shop is best, can be done without but tire dismount required.
Doesn't work for TPMS valve stems unfortunately.
I didn't think so. Thanks for the come back.@@BookAutowerks

Just swap the heads out if you want the 3/8ths
good tip
The problem with ripping the old stem out is the fat base tears off and is now inside of the tire.
It came out this time, but you're right. That's what the hook tool is for. I was just impatient 😅
without a doubt, this is probably the stupidest thing I have ever seen!
Haven't looked in the mirror in awhile then? 😆
@@BookAutowerks wow, good comeback! Do you own this POS or just promote it?
I attacked the product, not you. Sad that's all you got!
