Valve Stem Failures

Just wanted to warn everyone to check your valve stems. I replaced my factory metal valve stems with rubber aftermarket ones after the stems cracked and one even pushed through the rim when I tired to add air. My mechanic replaced them for $60 USD each and they work fine with the pressure monitoring system in the car. The rubber aftermarket parts don't look as cool but I didn't look cool putting the spare tire on at the gas station either...
