Most tire shops will just toss your valve cover to the side whenever they do a tire job and put in a different one.

Make sure the caps are not made of different metal than the valve stem. Apply a light coating of light oil on the threads to keep corrosion away.

I would always remove them before service of any kind. The greatest threat is theft.

They’re made of PC/ABS (Polycarbonate/Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene) blend, so no issues.

Plus metal would have added unnecessary weight :rolleyes:
