Bought a used set of wheels, TPMS or no?

    I picked up a used set of wheels over the weekend and when I asked the seller if they had sensors, he said that they didn't have them.

    16x8 ATX Ledge wheels
    265/75R16 General Grabber AT2

    From what I've read on here, many say if the valve stems are metal and not rubber, they have TPMS.

    I think my truck has the sensor readers as I have the small reset switch under the dash.

    Anyone have any input on how to know and how to read them?

    Thanks, I wasn't too sure on how to tell by the stems themselves.

    If you take off the cap you can actually slide the chrome sleeve off - it's just a rubber stem underneath.
