putting TPMS in my new wheels....what to use as stems for oem?

have oem 19" wheels w/ TPMS.. going to have the shop put the tpms on the new wheels.. (the tpms im pretty sure is the actual stem+lil box) so then what can i use as stems on my oem 19's?

would a regular pull thru rubber stem work on them? or am i going to need to buy something special like volk aluminum stems?

thank you in advance. need an answer asap.

That is what I used on my first two sets of wheels. Had to get brackets to mount them in my Volks.

ok so the black rubber ones will work as temporary's on the oem 19's?

thats all i was wondering because i know on some volks ive had in past they didnt work cause the hole was too small... so i wanted to make sure before i took my new wheels there to be mounted/balanced.

so as of now im just gonna put temporary rubber stems in the oem 19's incase i get a flat/etc and then put the tpms banded inside the new wheels..

awesome, thank you guys VERY much for the prompt response.. i just wanted to make sure while i still had time to overnight some rays stems if that was the only option
