    When you got your new wheels did you buy new sensors? Did it cost extra to have them setup?
    Are you running without sensors?
    Anyone know the part number for new sensors.. Any and all information is welcome.. new wheels coming next week..

    Thanks.

    If your OEM wheels are alloy, they will fit most aftermarket alloy wheels. Same goes for OEM steel wheel sensors fitting aftermarket steel wheels. What are you running now and what do you plan on putting on?

    Well with the stock tires in winter time good luck. Those tires are dry weather tires at best.

    To answer your question about sensors. I recently put on new wheels/tires with new sensors. I didn't have them programmed yet and the only issue is I don't know what the tire pressure is when I go to that section on the heads up display. All it reads is --- for each tire and I dont have a warning light either. The warning light lit for about 5 minutes when I was going 85 on the highway. Parked and turned off truck and the light went out and never came back on. That was 800 miles ago. When I take my truck to the dealer next for oil change I'll have them program the sensors.

    Stock wheels are nice on the TRD sport - the Firestone tires are shit. Be careful in the rain. I couldn't get them off soon enough.

    Some vehicles can store 2 sets of sensors but most only do 4. The dealer will charge a programming fee but may waive future fees when you sway back and forth every year.

    My truck came with steel wheels and the sensors do not fit the Toyota beadlock wheels. So I didn't use sensors and the light stays on. Doesn't bother me. Tire light on to me is no big deal.
