New rims question
Im buying a set of aftermarket Gt500 rims and want to know if I can get my TPS sensors from my stock rims put on the new ones. Or what is the better route to go in this case of the new rims not having the sensors? Any feedback as always, is welcomed.

You can put the stock ones on the new rims, not the funest thing to do tho. Will save you the trouble of syncing them.
Some go without any sensors and just ignore the dash warning about them. Have read of someone going with no sensors and some how clearing the warning but it was also said it's not possible so not sure about that.

Thanks guys. Ya I just priced them and its almost $200 for the kit on AM. My buddy has a tire machine and we can pull the tires off my stock rims when it comes time to put them on. How hard it is to pull the tps and valve sensor? Any knowledge?

I kept my stock sensors and i think thats the best choice. Anyone who buys the rims and needs sensors, has sensors on their current rims that they can also reuse.
make sure to use a high quality machine so you dont damagte the rims

Put the sensors in the tube. Seal off the other end of the tube, then fill the tube with air to the same pressure as your tires. Stick it under your drivers seat...it's close enough to still read the sensors.
The only problem with this method is that you will have to use the sensors that are currently sync'd to the car, but it does work.

That is ingenuity right there sir haha. I like the idea of having my stock rims as a back up just in case, but that $200 price tag doesnt sit to well. I still have to get tires for the rims, which Ill end up buying at a later date. Im buying all 4 rims for $50. So Im saving a ton of money. Thanks for the advice guys!
