Yes I did that years ago ….. A metal MTC 87 degree valve from " Kurvey Girl " …. However I didn't put it in the OEM hole ( wouldn't work there ) ….. During a rear tire change, I drilled a new hole in the rim on the DISC side of the flat portion …. it has to about 2 inches in from the lip, to avoid tire machine interference..... I left the OEM one where it was ….. Mike :ohyea:

thanks Mike , I am gonna take it to my shop and drill that hole on the opposite side as well. getting my own tire and taking it to my local tire store to have it installed and balance. Ive actually been looking at those on amazon lately.
