Jay, I am trying to understand this. When you say it has a sleeve "inside" it, do you actually mean it has a chrome sleeve on the "outside" of the stem? See pic below
All rubber stems have a brass interior, but this is not what will support your exterior add-on tpms sensor.
I think you may be talking about a TR600HP stem, which is a combination of brass and rubber.
Check out this forum link, and posts 31 and 33 to see. Read post 39 especially if you use a tire shop that doesn't seem to have much experience with them, to make sure they install them correctly.
Posts 37 and 38 tell a few places where members purchased the stems.

I am actually embarrassed and amazed at the total lack of knowledge at many of my fellow tire businesses. The poor lack of training really shines at some.
