Filling up tires with deep dish rims?

[Limit]

I've got 3-4" lips on my iForged, and can't find a single fitting that fits on my air compressor (or even manual pump) that fits nice on the end without scraping the rim up.

Anybody have any suggestions or specific fittings if they've had the problem?

I don't get it. I have iForged Classics (3"/4" lip too) and the valve stem on the rim is in part of the screw pattern on the inner perimeter of the wheel. One screw is actually not a screw, but the valve stem cap. It's as easy to get to as the lug nuts are. I use one of the shorty 15* angled head tire chucks but really haven't seen any tire chuck that wouldn't work.

Where the heck did they put the valve stem on your rims?

Bingo! I have a really nice valve stem extender I keep in my ashtray. So anytime I need to check/adjust my air pressure I have it with me.

I use one of these on the end of an air hose. No additional parts needed ever. Hand reaches into 4" lip wheel without clearance issues at all suspension settings. Not touching the wheel with the air chuck has resulted in the wheel finish being damage free.

If there was a "Recommend?" check box on this item I would check it.

+1

The guys at Discount gave me 2 that they went out and bought because they didn't want to risk scratching the rims when they filled them up. They work great!
