Need to buy tubes so need some education. Snyders says "The rubber stem tubes end up costing a lot less in the long run since you don't have to purchase all of the additional hardware" What is the alternative to rubber stem tubes? Where should I buy them?

The alternative is the original-style metal valve stems.

If you're not going for show quality, stick w/the rubber stems.

I bought tubes from Snyder's and had two blowouts within the first 800 miles. I threw the rest in the garbage and ordered Hartford tubes from Coker tire. Very thick rubber. No issues.
