I only stumbled upon this when I was trying to figure out why my after market wheels had regular stems with metal caps on the outside, and a TPMS valve with a plastic stem on the inner barrel. Turns out my TPMS valves required plastic caps only, so for aesthetic reasons they used two stems.
Those ///m tire valve caps are indeed plastic. I have them and they are a nice subtle edition. I like symbols here and there but not too big, these are just right

Look a little chinsey I your hand because they are plastic but look good when on the wheel
