Does anyone know where I can buy high[er] pressure tyre valves suitable for a PVC based on a 2013 Sprinter with standard steel wheels?

We had a valve failure on one of the back tyres when away in Europe this Summer....fortunately when we were at a campsite.

Mercedes seem unable to help.

The recommended pressure for our rear tyres is 75psi...I understand "normal" valves are only rated up to 65psi.

Thanks in advance!

Since 1964 Gosh that makes me feel old.
Your local commercial tyre fitting centre can supply & fit high pressure valves. They are used to fitting these valves.

These are good, and reasonably priced. TUV approved etc.

There are different lengths available.
Make sure you watch the installation video below.

Many tyre fitters will try and pull them in the way they do standard valves and this will break them. They PUSH in really easily with lube and a wiggle.
