I picked up some new metal caps because lets face it, they are not easily secured to the wheels and are easily stolen. Well, during my last tire change, the tire shop found this happened to the sensor.

Don't let this happen to you!

Yeah you cannot use metal caps on these stems because they will fuse together. Always use plastic sealing caps!
