I like these valve caps

Opinions?

Bin them and get plastic ones.
Plastic ones will never fuse onto the valve stems.
Will your wheels need balancing because of these caps?
Absolutely not.

gn2 wouldn't be wasting any lube on his valve stem.
KY is expensive, mind you sometimes Vaseline can be had at a baaaaaargain price.
