Installing New valve stem
Has anyone tried to push in a valve stem without removing the tire? Any success?

Never heard of such thing.
Job will require: breaking both beads; removing one side of tire from rim; cutting off old stem; pulling through new stem; re-installing the other half of the tire on the rim; re-seating both beads; properly inflating tires. Mark the tire before you start and align it the same way when you re-seat the beads so you won't have to rebalance the wheel. |

Saw this but I think I'll just take it to the shop. I hate dealing with tires.

All you got to do is break one side of the tire bead.
