    Thanks Vin. I know this is a late reply but where would I be able to purchase a strap band kit or would the shop I'm mounting the wheels at be able to provide a set? Kinda new to these tpms systems. Wanna get everything ready before the wheels come in.

    I bought my Stealth 6's back in January.. I knew as soon as I opened the box I'd made the right decision, cause they looked sweet.. Anyway after waiting to receive them, I got them late Friday evening and couldn't wait till Saturday morning to have them mounted. So against my better judgment and gut feeling I should wait I went up to Discount Tire right before they closed.. I was the last one in the door at Discount and everybody was itching to get out of there it being friday etc. So the dude that mounted and balanced them DIDN'T use the proper Tire Pressure Sensors causing ALL four valve stems to leak, but he didn't bother checking for leaks before mounting them on my truck.. I left and rode up the road and my Tire pressure sensor light came on, Discount had closed by then.. So I went home luckily because one of my rears was dam near flat when I parked it.. I spent the ENTIRE night up every hour on the hour going out and filling all four of my tires up with air so it wouldn't be sitting on four flats because they were leaking so bad , all because he didn't do his job right..
    Anyway I wanted to let you guys know about that so it doesn't happen to anybody caused it sucked donkey balls. I see one guy mentioned the Tire pressure sensor gauge deal so DEF keep it in mind if you go with these wheels..

    And Vin is a helpful and cool guy, So big up to Vin and SCS for a slick design and good customer service.
    Here's a couple pics..

    I forgot to mention in my post, they used late model Ford sensors and programmed them to work on my truck after they used the wrong ones the night before.. But I suppose the sensors are programable, at least some are.

    Not only do they match perfectly, Vin has a better price than what I would've paid if I would've got them at Discount. Only thing you need to let whoever mounts them know not to scratch the piss out of them using an impact trying to pit crew on your fresh wheels and lugs.

    Hey bro, so does that mean that without the tpms it would cause the tires to leak? thanks

    Btw what are the specs on your truck? tires and lift? haha. Got a black truck as well but went with the matte blacks. Thanks again.

    They leaked because they used the wrong tpms. If you use no tpms you wont have any problems besides figuring out how turn the stupid warning light off

    Our stock alloy wheel TPMS sensors are supposed to fit the Stealth 6's...?

    My tpms from my trd offroad wheels worked fine. The ones that dont work without modifications are the tpms from steel wheels

    Looking good JD! I'm glad the tire shop took care of you after that incident. I remember our conversation on the phone.

    :D See ya this evening Chris!

    They leaked b/c the tire installer thought he could get away with installing the sensors that came off his steel wheels onto our alloy wheels. As most know, the sensors are angled different so they were not seated properly so that's why it didn't hold air.

    Evan is correct once again <-- big thanks btw for helping out:D. As along as you have the stock alloys, the sensors will transfer over without a problem. If you've got some mileage on those sensors, consider having them rebuilt before they're installed.

    They're fairly cheap for an added insurance and peace of mind. Talk to your local tire place for further detail.
