    Mostly stock with a few minor mods.
    I always skip the "re-build kit" even when places like Discount Tire try to require it. I guarantee if you pay for it they don't touch them when they remove your old tire and put the new one on.

    I'm lucky to have a good discount tire close. They're always polite, get me in and out reasonably quick considering how busy they are and always make it right.

    Being cheap and reusing old ones might end up costing you more later on. If you have a tire shop you trust, you could ask them what they think about reusing the old ones.

    A very good point and I agree, the right way to do it. Thanks for the clarification on this.

    I think there are a couple of questions we have to ask ourselves....

    Are all TPMS created equal?
    What is the realistic expected service life?

    We have a very good idea what the service life of the OEM sensors are. App. 10 years plus or minus
    We simply don't know how long the non OEM sensors will last. This is worthy of consideration....

    I think the normal thinking is that a spare is a temporary deal, so no TPMS doesn't matter. With a full time spare you rotate in, it would be different. I'm not quite sure how people deal with having to reprogram every time for that... would suck to have to take the truck to a shop for every rotation. I had a full sized spare on my Jeep, but I deleted the TPMS early on.

    What year is your 5 lug? If it’s the ‘13 in your profile, your spare doesn’t have a TPMS sensor.
