Dual Valve Stems

Caught the Bug
So... say I had a stack of KMC XD Machetes and 37x13.5r17 Coop Discoverer STT Pros in my garage. Would there be any reason to not use dual valve stems, and to use plugs like these in one of the holes?

Thanks in advance, I've never used wheels with dual valve stems before. FWIW, I'm currently using an ARB deflator.

I have dual valve stems. I find myself airing up and down the non tpms stems. Plus you’ll probably find 5 valve stems are cheaper than the plugs.

I run a standard shrader valve and a monster valve. Love the combo as airing up is quick and so is airing down.

I like having both stems, tpms on one side, rubber stem on the other.

filling and deflating are the same but I find the ARB deflate gauge screws on easier to the rubber valve stem

Is all you need to air down super fast. Trust me, there really is no need for anything more.

I run 2 valve stems on Moby wheels because, as you know, his wheels has ports for 2 just like yours do. The real benefit I've found for having 2 stems is that you now have 2 options for airing back up. It's always easier to air up when the valve stem is sitting on the bottom of the wheel or there about and with the 2 options, you'll always have one that is.

I never thought of that. I hate when the valve stem is on top.
