TPMS sensors for aftermarket wheels

[Berserker__taco]

I'm getting ready to upgrade my wheels as soon as I can get this figured out. To everyone who bought new alloy wheels... what did you do for TPMS sensors? I'd like to keep my steel wheels for winter weather so I will need another set for the new wheels. Which ones do I need to buy or are they all the same? I'm getting Black Rhino Bantams.

I bought mine as part of the wheel/ tire package when I ordered them online. Everything was installed, mounted and balanced.

I can do that with some of the online wheel warehouses that are popping up all over. Custom Offsets wants $179 for the sensors. I can get a 4 pack of OEM replacements for $60 on ebay. Hopong those would work.

I ordered mine from Custom Offsets. I just don't trust stuff from eBay all the time.

What type of lugs did they set you up with? Were they conical or spline lugs? I know my factory lugs wont work for my steel wheels. Most of the manufacturer websites wont even tell you that info

They sent me the wrong lugnuts and because I’m a moron and forced them on I had to replace all my studs. So I ordered these from method https://www.methodracewheels.com/collections/lug-nuts/products/lug-kit-black-hex

Got a set of conical spline lugs and factory TPMS. Wheels were dropped at the house today. Should have the 255/85-16 Coopers mounted up this weekend if all goes well!

I took the sensors out of my old wheels and put them in the new ones... if you buy oem ones from a Toyota dealership they’ll run you 100 bucks each. Also if you get new wheels your prob gonna need some new lugs. Stock ones are universal size so anyone with a t bar and jack stands can steal your wheels. I ordered some from Scs that come with a key and I’m very happy with them.
