I have used masking tape on the rims to stop the wheel covers from moving. It worked very well on our 1964 Galaxy 500 “14 wheels” which has very heavy wheel covers.

Hi,
I had problems with the 15 " wheels on my F. The wheel covers kept turning. Bending the tangs to make a tighter fit did not help. When I converted 15" wheels to accept 14" wheel covers, I decided to spray lots of paint where the tangs meet the wheels so the covers would fit tighter. Schzaam!! No more turning of the covers. Also now I do not worry about losing a cover out on the highway.
I just get valve stems from Napa. They have both diameters and various lengths based on what your wheel covers require. I wouldn't use metal ones on a 1964 as the factory wheel covers move around too much, especially if you're using radial tires.
