No, the valve is inside the wheel. When will you need to calibrate it is necessary to attach an extension. The reason is to hide the air valves!

So if you need to service - assume add more air - u attach this extension, attach air and pump up and then remove extension? That could be a good thing, less opportunities for hooligans.

9" = (width of the rim) X 20" diameter of the rim. 245 (the width of the tire in cm/40 is % of the tire's width the tire is high. R20Y is internal tires size and speed classification
#36 11 6 764 863 = BMW part number.. I think..

Am I right?
