Re: Where can I get the gray/silver valve stem caps?

The TPMS stems are aluminum, and will corrode if a metal cap is used. Honda actually "recalled" the metal caps on the early 2006 Ridgelines and sent out a package of plastic caps to replace them. I had one freeze up on me between tire rotations. It can happen that quickly.

Do not worry about achieving your optimum fuel economy until you get the vehicle broke-in according to the recommended guidelines described in your owners manual."
