Years ago I had some real cheap nasty alloy ones and the kids never stole them which was a surprise.
Turned out they had corroded themselves on to the valve! I ended up cutting the valve off, no wonder they lasted so long the kids couldn't get them off.

Never had fancy valve caps and left a car on a drive/side of the road, it's asking for them to be pinched. I have plastic valve caps to keep it simple.
Thats just it though - the car was parked right outside my front window!

When I drove from Sweden to Edinburgh, someone stole my valve caps in Birmingham (in the hotel car park) pretty odd.

Good enough reason never to go back there....

I don't know if they were kids, but someone kept stealing my cheap plastic caps! I mean come on, I put rubbish ones on there for a reason!
