I just disassembled my tires/wheels in preparation for new tires that are on their way. When I took the tubes out, there was a plastic grommet around the base of the stem where it goes thru the wheel. I would like to put new ones in when I put the new tires on, but I don't see them in any of the vendor catalogs.

Anyone know what they are called and where I can get them?

Oh, BTW, the tubes I took out of the "old" tires say right on them: Made is USA. (Tires were Firestones made in New Zealand.) Replacing the tires only because of extreme weather cracks, still had lots of tread. They were 25+ years old, just not many miles.
