So I recently brought some new rays valve stems.

Was wondering do you need any threadlocker to install these bad boys? or just screwing them on and locking them is the way to go.

How tight should they be? (i.e - two finger tight with a spanner? torqued? etc)

I know a tyre place does this for free when you mount the tyres but im kinda anal about them messing up my new rims lol

I've never used any thread locker. Never been any need for it. Tighten them up with finger then spanner so the rubber compresses and deforms. Be sure not to over tighten.
