How long is the Schrader valve? Will it stick far enough out of a double rim tire?

The valve stem on the tube I got was rather short, maybe about an inch long not counting the threaded part.

Yes it will just barely. you will need to hold it with a pair of needle nose pliers to get it air up the first time.

do you have an estimate how wide the valve core is..i can measure the dia of the fattest adapter

I have this tool. I called the manufacturer before purchase and they will not guarantee it will work on your vehicle. I can tell you it likely will because it has a lot of different sizes. My advice is to buy the schrader valve first and verify the size and see if it is listed in the tool kit.

several choices - get one with schrader valve for 700 x 38c tire. The tubes normally fit several tire sizes so don't be alarmed if you see several numbers, as long as 38 is one of them. There are different valve stems too, but yours is a Schrader. Search for 700 X 38C tube Schrader. Hope this helps!

You should be able to find the dimensions of the tire on the side of it. I don't recall what they are off the top of my head, but I've bought this replacement tube before:Sunlite Standard Schrader Valve Tubes, 700 x 28-35 (27 x 1.375 - 1.25") / 32mm Valve, Black

Has to be steel 5 spoke.17 inch rim. Valve stem has to between the spokes. As seen in pic. They are specific to certain models

so long as the air nozzle fits the tire valve it will and all tire valves are the same except for high end bicycle tires just be aware the cartridges get bitterly cold when used! wear gloves and go for it

Yes just barely. It fits tight enough that it will not come off. But will not go all the way around the back of the tire. I have one on my grand vitara which is pretty much the same thing.

By too big I'm presuming you are referring to the diameter. The tube handles a range of widths, 1.75-2.2 and beyond since I use one in a 2.35 wide tire so I can't imagine that being a problem. I would re-check the rim diameter and based on your information, I'm guessing you might find it is a 24" dia. If it is truly a 26" dia rim than the other potential is that slime accidentally stuffed a 700 (27.5 inch) or 29 in tube in the box by mistake. Good luck.

Schraeder was fine. It would not lock onto a Presta valve - even with the adapter. I returned it.

No, you should not drill out the hole to fit a Schrader valve. Where the hole is drilled for the valve is the weakest part of the rim, and drilling out would almost guarantee failure. The whole point of presta valves is that they are smaller diameter and can do with a smaller hole, leave more metal, and do with a narrower and lighter rim. If these were made of steel, I would say that it might be possible, but they are an aluminum alloy. I bought these and was tempted to drill them out since I didn't have presta valve inner tubes on hand, and I'm glad I didn't. I ordered thick puncture resistant presta valve inner tubes and put Continental Gatorhardshell tires on them, and I haven't had any problems at all with this combination after about 1000 miles.

It would seem to me that with a backspace of 4" that would put the mounting surface of the rim .5" off the center of the rim. And this rim would have and offset of 12.5 mm. They make spacers to use if tire is too close to suspension.

I am presently using 1 1/8" tires on it. Remember that the valve hole is for Presta valves. Perhaps you could fit a high quality 1 1/4" but I think that it would be close. The sizing appears to be more of the older racing rims/tires and I think it would fit 1" pretty well. I wouldn't hesitate to use them on an older Eddy Merckx and the like. I'm using the wheels on a touring bike/errand bike and have carried some surprisingly heavy loads with them without an problems whatsoever.

You may need to "smash" the part that locks onto the Schrader valve. It is kind of a cheap made tool. Works OK if you only need one occasionally

The threaded stem is the same size as the stem it goes over, the tire stem. Your valve cap will fit on, your pump will fit etc. It is a standard schrader valve size, 8mm diameter

They stick out from body about 4-5 inches. They work well with the larger off-road tires that I have.

This is only set up for Schrader valves. You may be able to find an adapter though.
