'65 Kelsey Hayes wheel question

[mach2andy]

I believe that the KH wheels fitted to my car will take a standard valve? Does anyone out there know otherwise? I'm having 4 new tyres fitted and the fitter wants to be sure that his standard stock valves will fit before he starts the job. I don't know if my wheels are originals or repo"s, but I can't imagine that that will matter? I've worked out that my tyres are at least 20 years old, but despite them looking remarkably good, I think it's time to move on.

Yeah tyres that old may look ok but could fail at any time and cause all sorts of fiberglass damage. When I had my knock off's fitted with new tyres the tyre shop had a range of valve stems to choose from to ensure we got the correct length fitted. Nice '65
