My all steel stems have the normal rubber donut seals.

stems that were the rigid type, where the wheel part is threaded, goes through
the rim, with a nut on the inside, gaskets on both sides. I have these on two
autos with aluminum wheels and like them, cause they never wear, until the
gaskets actually rot I guess and that is gradual, so you dont have sudden
deflation like on the stock type with the rubber elbow. Ask me how I know.
Anyone ever use these? Im getting ready to order new tires, partly because I
have another stem cracking, so the wheel needs broken down anyway.
