Any Body know of nice valve caps?

As the title states does anybody know of any nice tyre valve caps that wont oxidise themselves to the valve stems (resulting in a very expensive replacment of the stem like my last Audi)? I know my RRS doesn't have the tyre pressure monitoring system but it's still a pain in the arse when you cant get the cap off to put air in the tyre Exclamation 10 TDV8 Santorini

I you put copper grease on the valve stem threads before putting the valve cap on you can fit any type of valve cap you like without fear of them seizing. Wink Thumbs Up
Otherwise plastic caps.

I am amazed my mini one cost a third of the price of my RRS and comes with TPMS as standard Thud

It also has a courtesy light in the middle of the roof and above the mirror in the front so you can see in the dark Whistle

Did I mention it cost a third Rolling Eyes Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW
