Tyres and valves

What are the current best touring 350x10s out there? I've just noticed that the rear Raceman on the Jet is nearly bald.
Also what size screw in valve do I need? The Bridgeport ones come in 8.3 and 11.3 mm. Are there any other recommended screw in ones?

Might be worth hanging on for the new Schwalbe Sportsman Frank

That depends on whos tubeless rims they are and how old they are.
All Sterling ones need 8.3, scootrs changed from 8.3 to 11.3 but not sure when they changed.

Has anyone used other valves on the scootrs mk111 rims other than the bolt in types and push in rubber type, i know some people have fitted the bridgeport type, i would really like to try this conversion( though i hear it's not a straight forward swap over) reason being i have a frank sanderson tubeless type disc brake and i'm not really up to forking out for a new disc brake so for me it's gonna be scootrs tubeless and hopefully a better valve setup so peolple any help you can put my way on different valves or doing the bridgeport valve conversion i would be very grateful indeed ,cheers Hicksy.
