The TPMS caps are indeed longer. The threaded part of the stem is longer, so the cap is longer.

Woo-hoo I'm not crazy! So that being said... Per my original question... Where to get the longer caps?

I have the same ss caps but in black and red instead of the chrome. They fit perfect.

I can't believe you're worried about valve stem caps.

Don't use the wrong valvestems, it could result in a sunroof leak.

If you have an O'Reilly's around you they do sell the longer black plastic valve stem covers for use with the TPMS. I couldnt find them at Autozone or Pep Boys. The "normal" ones leave some of the thread showing and, believe it or not, it's fairly noticeable.

OK so now that I know I'm not crazy I feel a bit better...

Are there any options other than the standard black ones that are the longer cap

No they looked good on yours! Mine has wicked long stems for some reason, I don't know why

I agree, I bought the fancy RS caps but they look kind of strange with all the extra threads showing. I left them on, but it does kind of defeat the purpose of buying nice looking caps.
