anyone recommend a seller, i can see packs on ebay but i have no use for all the other sizes.

i'd happily buy 10,20,50, 100 but i'm not looking for 1000s to save a few pennies

I use a silverline O ring selection pack from toolstation in those little boxes. They have worked fine on mine.

I don't use them on all my wheels, but on some rims the lockring kept coming loose, and the o-rings stopped that from happening.

The RRP Valveguard does that job.  £3.99 for a pack of 6.

do you need the screw on bit? I usually lose mine the 1st time I pump the tyre up

Thanks guys, didn’t think of tool station ,

ill just get 10 on eBay for now, didn’t find that when I looked earlier..

I find on certain tubeless valves and rims combinations an o ring can be the difference between a leak and an airtight seal

The OP is tubeless I assume.
