It’s pretty much always the tape not the valve in my experience. Is this stock (I have no idea what they offer there, in the process of building to my own wheels for mine)? Did you apply the time tape? Soapy water may make it look like the air is escaping at the rubber valve plug interface, but that’s usually just where it finally ends up. I’d probably re-tape if I were you… maybe with better tape? I like Stan’s personally. Make sure you get the correct width and watch some videos on how to keep tension as you apply. I also use a cloth or rag over my finger to remove friction and run my finger through the rim channel with a ton of pressure to get out all dem bubs and maximize adhesion. It may seem a bit counterintuitive, but don’t over tension the stem. It distorts the plug preventing it from sealing against the valve hole evenly. If you really want to replace the stems, I’ve tried a ton and these are the fucking best: https://a.co/d/0fVCMCxs. They look cool af too (imo) and have an integrated core remover and spike wrench.
