An articulating tire valve install-removal tool and related methods for use. The articulating tire valve install-removal tool has a body comprising an outer perimeter, an inner recess, a threaded member, a linkage and a contact member. The articulating tire valve install-removal tool components are connected to each other and secured within the body so one or more components can rotate around one or more axes. Together these components facilitate in the valve being installed and removed perpendicular or generally perpendicular to the valve hole on the wheel. The articulating tire valve stem tool includes a linkage assembly that is attached to the body to facilitate in ensuring the valve is installed and removed with the valve perpendicular to the valve hole in the wheel rim. The articulating tire valve stem tool includes contact member includes a feature that prevents slipping on the rim during use in addition to acting as a fulcrum to increase mechanical advantage during the use of the articulating tire valve install-removal tool. The articulating tire valve stem install-removal tool includes a contact member that has a feature that inhibits or prevents damage or slipping on the wheel during use in addition to acting as a fulcrum to increase mechanical advantage during the use of the articulating tire valve install-removal tool. The contact member also includes a feature to lock the threaded member parallel or generally parallel to the body which allows for the device to attach to the valve quickly. The body of the articulating tire valve stem tool reduces deflection, increases ergonomics and is more durable due to the design.
