  You might try the all metal valve stems. Or, something like this..  http://www.jcwhitney.com/flush-mount-valve-stem-kits/p2003918.jcwx?filterid=c3835u0j1

Location: western PA		Wheel covers of many shapes, styles and sizes are available on E Bay. They usually will almost cover the end of a standard valve stem, greatly limiting its exposure. To air and check the tires, I use a valve stem extension and then remove it when traveling.
