Aestethically, they CAN be too long.
In any group ride of more than 3 people, at least one will be thinking about criticizing you for your lack of dedication to the sport.

Thanks all.
Not worried about the aesthetics, more concerned thwt I hadn't considered some functional reason that would make tubes with too long valves for my wheels to be problematic.
