Did you put new TPMS in the tires and have the ECU reset to accept them? If not you need to go to a dealer or someone else that has the equipment to reset the system.

yes, the bcm needs to learn the new data from the new sensors. they have a different data code that the bcm is not finding

Make sure the air pressure is above 32 if not it will go off also go to discount tire and they will reset it for you. They may or may not charge you, if you were in Orlando I would do it for free but if they charge you it won't be anywhere near what the stealership charges.
Hopefully whoever installed them didn't break one..

Each wheel has a sensor in it, so unless you removed them from your old wheels you need new ones for these wheels. Then the sensors need to be setup with the ecu which requires a scan tool.

my new wheels were used to be on 03 g35 coupe so im assuming theres a sensor on it, so i have to go to the dealer to have them reset my ecu?
