No need to replace perfectly good existing valve stems just to put the caps on.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

My wife bought a set for me a couple of years ago and I haven't gotten around to putting them on the car yet. I'm having new tires installed on Tuesday and wondered if they were worth installing.... are the valve caps a pain to remove?
There pretty easy to install, remove the cap soap up the stem and pull them thru from the inside. I just installed some a couple of weeks ago when I bought new wheels.
If you're talking about the caps themselves, just unscrew them like any other.
Thanks guys. Good to know. I've just had them sitting in a box for a couple of years and not paid much attention to them. I wasn't sure if the stems were just standard stems or not.
Nice to know, I'll have them installed with the new tires.
+1 these are pretty nice, look about the same as I had...the long caps cover up the stem...but your stem has to be long enough (some people have short stems)
Just use the caps. The valve stems are normal ones. No need to replace perfectly good existing valve stems just to put the caps on. The cap should cover your existing valve stem just fine...total installation time from opening box to posting a pic online should be about 4.27 minutes.
