I use a commercial inflator. It has a long chrome stem with top and bottom air outlets. Also you can go to the Auto Zone, Murray, Advance and several other suppliers for "tube extenders" and attach them to your tire tubes. They may be plastic, but they work great.

Dose anybody, other than me, have air in their w/c tires? Pete was trying to put air in with two different pumps, a hand Bicycle pump and a foot operated pump but all that was happing was air kept coming out. He said that the stems are to short. What are some solution? I'm having the company, that sold/ordered the chair, to come out and check the tire and stems and PSI. Pete brought the chair, with no air in the tires, to a very local Firestone (1 mile away) and they couldn't be nicer guys. All four workman cane out to assess the situation and put air in with a compressor (I don't know what PCI) but with the wheel with the shorter stem, they took the wheel off partially, put air in, then put it back on. Pete went back with lottery tickets as thanks. Smile Everyday
