okay thanks so much for all the info. hard to find all this stuff when you don't have much hands on experience with it lol
so assuming the enkeis use a tapered seat if I went with this set of 12x1.5 lug nuts, the motorsport tech adapters, and then the enkei wheels themselves I should be good to go?
Rubber non TPMS valve stems are fairly uniform across the board from automotive wheels to hand dolly wheels. If the rubber valve stem isn’t sealing properly and it’s a aftermarket wheel then I would say it’s safe to assume the valve stem hole has been bored out.
How many wheels are leaking, and for %100 sure it’s the valve stem to wheel mating area leaking and not the wheel bead?
Edit: just read your old posts and did some digging. Your wheels won’t fit the standard rubber valves stems, they do but they don’t. You need another flush mount kit to go back into the original holes. They should seal on their own with the rubber gasket supplied, if not then you can try some bead sealer also in Conjunction with the rubber washer on the valve stem base.

I can't read the exact size though.
I'd guess maybe you could sell them for about half of what they cost new if in mint condition. Maybe more maybe less depending on demand for those wheels, demand for that size/bolt pattern and how fast you want them gone of course.
Do you mean there's no key for the wheel locks? It doesn't look like these need a key, they are just splined lug nuts. You can usually just buy a socket that'll fit them on like this. Just do your best measuring them and determine if they're 6 spline or 7 spline and you should be able to find the right socket.
If you don't want to do that, you can do what they thieves do and find a socket that's just slightly too small and hammer it on to the lugnut. This will ruin the socket but it'll work.
