Others have posted that they had to have the dealer reset their TPS after installing new wheels to make it work properly. Others that know more should chime in to correct me if I am wrong.

hmm good to know...how do they reset them?? is it the sensors they reset or the light in our dash? i just swapped out my oem 18" wheels and slapped the 19's on with the sensors on them and i didnt get any tps light so i figured that they were the samething on my 18's until i realized my pressure was low yesterday and it didnt light up

I will call the dealer on Monday and ask.I'm just guessing, but since I had the sensors on my car before they probably reset just the computer.I think if I could have changed the wheels,tires,sensors at the same time,without starting the car I wouldn't of had to have it reset.I did try unplugging my battery overnight but that didn't reset the tps light.

I just have a quick question regarding the TPS sensors. I will be selling my stock wheels to another member soon, and want to know if there is anything that he will have to do to make these work on his car. Will they just automatically work? or would he have to take the wheels to the dealer for them to adjust something?

Thanks
