Has anyone had a problem adding air to there tire (Alcoa Rims 19.5 inch with Bridgestones) I can use my pressure gauge with no problem - but I can not get any of my air chucks to work on the Alcoa valve stems - any info would be appreciated.

I have a air chuck that has the same angled head that my gauge has. Do you have a similar matched air chuck and gauge?

I found it cramped - so have put longer stems on all the tires over time. Just one left at the moment. Just a little more length improves accessibility. Some folks have told me that the longer stems (outfacing) can cause issues, but I am talking just a mild extension here, and have had no problems. Inward facing can still require some gymnastics, but not bad. (Michelin XZE)

Thanks for the input - took the unit to the "big tire truck service shop " this morning - as hard as it is to believe - it was a "user problem" - hurts to admit it but I was not properly engaging the air chuck on the stem(s) they through in a couple of extensions at N/C and sent me home.....
