Look for a product called Crossfire. Good enough for truckers, ambulance companies etc...

Crossfire - Dual Dynamics

Option 2: Have long valve stems installed, OR, install solid metal extensions long enough to reach through the hole. Again, unless you have a TPMS installed, the Alligator caps will make life much easier.

On my aluminum wheels, after having a cracked valve stem, I also bought rubber stabilizers that fit in the hole in the wheel to keep the long stems from flexing while driving.
After getting fed up with leaks from option 2 on multiple RVs, I removed the extensions and now use option 1. Much better...
