Thanks Ben.

Congratulations @Giacomo enjoy the new level 😀

Congratulations @Julien Recan enjoy the new leve 😀

@Emanuel yes still my favorite method although you do have to be careful and make sure they seat correctly. I had mine done at Artic trucks and Offroad zone before that, as I have changed them one time and will again before the season gets underway around October time (just my preference to change for new)

@Hani crest king congratulations very well deserved!

Congrats @Julien Recan

Congratulations @Julien Recan

Hi @Davie Chase, are these the ones you have installed? Are they still your favorite deflation method? Are yours the Apex brand and can you recommend the place you had yours installed? Hi @Looper, are yours the Apex brand? I read your more recent posts after Ilya's post and wonder if you overall still feel these are worth it. Any other recommendations on this point would be appreciated. Thanks
