Default Dumb question about valve stems.

I'm about to order 15x8 cragar soft 8's with 4inch back spacing. They don't come with valve stems. So I would have to order them seperate. Do I need to order a certain kind? Thanks for your help

Nope.
Tire shops will have a few styles for you to choose from.
High pressure, plain black rubber, chrome, etc.
The thickness of the wheel may come into play if they don't stock a certain flavor of stem.

I know that if you buy tires from Discount Tire they do new valve stems for free. So ask your shop before you go buy them.
