Yes, Igor . . . It was a long wait. After cleaning the tires, polishing up the wheels and mounting them onto the car, the wait was worth it.

Congratulations Andy! I'm glad you decided to go with the KDW2's- I think you'll enjoy them alot. Have you installed your OEM 350z suspension yet?

I still have no idea what the ETA is on my wheels.

Sweet, I know the feeling. Congrats and enjoy!

Hey Paul and Chris . . . Did you guys have the TPS's remounted onto your new rims? I didn't want to go through the trouble of doing that. I check my tire pressures every Saturday morning. I got an air compressor so that I could do that in the morning while the tires were cold.

Based on what I read from other members, the audible and visual alerts do come on after some time. I have driven some 130 miles on this new set-up and the alerts have yet to enunciate. Is that your experiences, as well? I know that the TPS system works in my car, because I had a nail in one of my OEM tires and the audible and visual alerts both went off.

Don't bother, it is not worth the hassle of putting them back on, I mean I have driven for so many years without this device so why should I rely on it now. I check mine every weekend when I wash the car and it never goes down so it tells you how often air is needed.
The light does come on if your on a long drive but as soon as you turn the car off, it resets back to normal, I usually get the light on when I go on crusies with you guys

I had my TP sensors put back in and they worked great. They didn't charge me any extra to do it so I had no problem with them doing the work. =) It's handy to have, although my no means a necessity. I only wish it would tell you which tire exactly instead of the generic beep and then I have to bust out my Digita Air Guage anyway and run around to all four.

Good stuff . . . Thanks guys. So, I should expect to see and hear a warning on this weekends Hearst Castle run. Let me see how long it takes. I'm sure that the very first time it goes off, I'll be thinking wtf?
