Default Sourcing BBS valve stems and valve stem adapters

Hi, I have a set of BBS Milan wheels (2 - 81/2 J X 18H2 ET33 and 2 - 9J X 18H2 ET35). Finally took them today to get new tires mounted and was told that I need special BBS valve stems and valve stem adapters. Looking for some guidance on a vendor here in America or in the UK to source these and complete this project. Any guidance is much appreciated.

Found another one and not sure which one is the correct part: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BBS-INFLA...-/251628262640

Going to drop a note to the vendors and BBS USA for more guidance.

You've linked the actual valve, which remains fitted to the wheel. But I think what you're actually after is just the cap remover and valve adaptor?
Try here: http://www.sbwheels.co.uk/
or here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/JAGUAR-BBS-...5MyH:rk:6:pf:0

I bought a kit similar to the second link, and it came with a valve adaptor, a "T" shaped removal tool (like a small screwdriver) and a couple of replacement caps. I haven't had any luck finding anything similar though. I think they're getting rarer and rarer

SNG Barratt used to have them. Might pay to make an enquery?
