I had difficulty finding valve stems that would fit the Champions, they had to be ordered. MrBlaine suggests either welding closed or plugging the holes with shorty stems, and drilling new holes on the inside of the wheel. You can then use an angled valve stem and point it through the wheel to the front. I personally have never broken a valve stem (I only wheel at the mall) so I haven't done this modification, but it is something you might consider.
I mount mine on a 5 gallon bucket, fairly simple. I tighten by hand, only use an air rachet to remove.
Don't forget to check the bolts after 50 and 100 miles, it takes a few checks before they settle into place. After that I check once a month, and after every wheeling trip.
Pick up some extra bolts to keep as spares.
