    i just bought a set of TRD Pro wheels, new tires, and new lug nuts for my truck.
    I’m under the impression that I’ll need new TPMS sensors as well.

    I have a 2017 SR that currently has the stock factory steel wheels.

    Is there a specific part number or model number to look for on the TPMS wheel sensors?
    I see them on eBay for between $107 and $126 for a set of 4.

    Thanks,

    Take them out of the old wheels and install them in the new ones.

    I’m under the impression that the sensors found in the steel wheels will not work with aluminum wheels. Is this not the case?

    Some folks report that if you flip the sensor 180 it will work. Worth a try.

    Some have been able to make it work by flipping them 180 degrees. Has to do with the angle of the valve stem. Basically the ones you have won't sit flat on the rim, so they might get broken when mounting/dismounting the tire or if you get a bad flat. Most tire shops and dealers will say it doesn't work.

    I just run mine without sensors, deal with the dash light, and check my own tire pressure every couple weeks.

    Forgot to mention your spare does not have one. So put it on the ground, then take the one from the rolling position and have it broken down and the sensor removed (don't think you need a full dismount) so you can experiment.

    If you are selling your old wheels/tires as a set, it should then only need a rubber stem and re inflation.
