TPS question - 2003.5

Is there a chance it was an option pre 04 that was made standard post 04?... If so, they probably didn’t make any changes in the sending unit - just added the sensors… if so, the coupe wheels he bout should be okay – they just need to reset the sensors.
On the other hand I do know the ECU was upgraded post 03… so the “sending unit” may have been too… this is an interesting wait and see… Hopefully the OP won’t drop off the face of the earth like so many other black hole G35 questions…

yea I'll jsut keep them on as they are. When/if I decide to sell the wheels They'll be that much more appealing.
On a good note, I actually sold my ugly FAST wheels for $800! (with tires)

I have a RAV4 as a DD and that has a reset button that I can set a reference point, but I think that system is axle based as it does not have tire sensors.

Anyway, don't let them BS you about the problem. At one point the service manager even suggested it was because I powder coated my wheels
nearly 2 yrs with powder coated wheels and all of the sudden they cause a problem? What an idiot! I won't name the dealer but I will say they use to be great! All I can say now is they lost some key people and I could not in good faith say they are that good anymore.

Ironically the first trip (2 months prior) I told them I had a suspicion it was a bad sensor in one of the rear tires.

I'll just have to leave them on the stock wheels for the winter, safer anyway. Does the sensor have to be out of the wheel for reprogramming or can they do it from within the wheel? How much do they usually charge for the reprogram?
