Hey guys I was wondering what you guys use or recommend to plug up tpms holes on wheels that have TPMS.

Thanks in advance!

 

Valve stem

 

Reverse mount the valve stem right?

 

Are you serious? Our TPMS is a valve stem on the outside and a sensor on the inside, why would you want to plug the hole in your wheel? Are you dismounting your tires or maybe a better question would be....what are you doing?

Basically here's the situation. I bought new wheels and they come with holes drilled for tpms. I'm not going to use tpms for these new wheels so I was just seeing what some people did here.

I know some people use rubber seals and others reverse mount another set of valve stems.

 

Why don't u use the tpms??

 

My other 3 sets of wheels never had tpms, so it doesn't bother me. I've gotten used to it over the years!

 

How would you put air in the tire ?

The TPMS is built into valve stem, so either use the TPMS or if aftermarket rims get an adapter if the TPMS can't be mounted directly (IE Volk Rims).

If a stock rim than just use a standard valve stem.

Personally would keep the TPMS until batteries die in them.

 

so u have 2 seperate holes for the valve stem and tpms hole?

 

The valve is on the left, the other hole on the right.

 

I vote twin valve stem it. Like twin turbos

 

Yeh I'ma twin valve it up since you won't be able to see the second one anyways

 

I've never seen a wheel with two holes, do they make wheels now? I believe what he's asking, if you don't install the TPMS what would you use....maybe? The answer is valve stems of course, but I still wonder why you don't want to use the wheel sensors since they serve a purpose with our low profile tires?

They put 2 valve holes for wheels that are reverse mount and need to install a tpms sensor. If it didn't have that hole in the back side, when you tried to mount the tire, (with the rim face down) the tire bead would break the sensor, or the sensor wouldn't allow the tire to seat. They have been making wheels like this since the valve stem type sensors came oit. Now as far as the op's question goes, you put a normal valve stem in the hole. You dont put a seal in it (whatever that means) or do something silly like put the valve stem backward.
