    If you mean weight they are 23 lbs. I think on my scale at work, I'll double check today. As far as TPMS I'm trying to figure the same thing. The dealer told me today that they don't have any that fit. I don't believe a word of that though.

    How about straps for the TPM sensors? Does anyone have any experience with these? Can I strap my 40 degree steel wheel sensors in a first gen wheel?

    Just don't put the tpms sensors in. All it'll do is keep the light on in the dash iirc, unless I'm wrong...

    If it bothers you put a piece of electrical tape over it.

    No offense but I really don't want to "put a piece of tape" on anything in my brand new truck.
