Replace seal only on Rays Valve stems?

I'm putting on a set of used wheels that looks like they have these Rays valve stems on them. https://www.rallysportdirect.com/par...FQcfhgod25sLBA

I'm going to get new tires put on them soon but was wondering if it was possible to replace just the rubber seal ring on these Rays valve stems since I think the existing ones are old. I don't want to buy all new stems, just want to change the rubber seals. Anyone know where I can find them?

Thanks!

Nope. They won't sell you just the rubber seals or component parts of the valve stems. You might try to find somewhere that you can buy rubber gaskets that happen to be the right size (I don't know what that is). I tried quite a while back and ended up buying all new valve stems. Even that was a PITA.

Discount tire sells rebuild kits for tpms. Usually sold as part of a tire purchase but perhaps they sell you just the kits.

This is what they used on my car (stock wheels).

Unfortunately that's not the right type of seal for Rays valve stems. But maybe the TPMS rebuild parts are a good place to look. Other ones might have the right kind of seals.
