The valve itself wasn't long, but an extension was threaded on the valve to extend the valve out far enough outside the ring to help make adding air with a nozzle easier. While you are at it, if you are setting up wheels and tires for a show car, make sure your tire installer lines up the valve with the Wingfoot on the Goodyear letters on the polyglas tire.

Wow I had forgotten all about the plastic extensions Me too...from a practical standpoint they suck! Worked at a tire store in the early 80s...I remember taking many of them off due to leaks.
