Netter's,
Are valve stems included and installed in the wheels replaced under the Alcoa recall program.

No speculation please. Just the facts.

Thanks

Yes, they will come with the valve stems installed. You might want to take the ones off the wheels before you send them back so you will have spares.

I know you don't want speculation but, It would not surprise me that Alcoa no longer has replacements.

I just recieved 2 new wheels from Alcoa.
I found 2 new Alcoas for sale that were on the recall list. I called Alcoa and everything went smoothly.

How am I to check to see if my wheels are included?

Your wheels have to fall within these dates:

Yep, they still have wheels. I got a set of 7 last year in less than a week.

Glad to know they still have plenty. Too bad they no longer sell them. I'd like to be the buyer when they dump their stash.
