Yes change out to a metal valve stem. I had a customer ride from Tx to VA about 200 miles to VA his rear rubber valve stem ripped letting all the air out the tire so in VA Beach he had the stem replaced with a rubber stem and then on the way home about 200 miles from his house boom the new valve stem ripped and another tow truck later we installed metal valve stems.

The FOBO TPMS sensors are very accurate and will read it the pressure is just a 1 pound off so on race tires it will work great FYI

Has anyone tried any of the TPMS that mount internally? Such as the attached?

I'm going to steal this quote from you. I can think of so many things this applies to.
