^ your car is made before Apr 2006 right? So I think they will work, according to JavyLSU.

after Lexus registered the codes into your car's computer, you should be able to switch back and forth between the 2 sets on your dashboard control.

P.S. I only got 1 set, but Ken @ Advance placed them inside the spare tire, so no matter which set of rims I use, it will still detect the TPMS.

I bought my set off eBay. The seller is a CL member as well (I think his name is "datboynam"). He sold them to me for $150 USD shipped (for the Pacific TPMS for April 2006+ cars). Not a bad deal. He was accepting offers for like $130 USD shipped to American guys it seems though... They look brand new to me (haven't installed them yet --waiting for my rims to come in).

TPMS sensors are about $90 each plus tax I think.

Each sensor has a 7 digit code that is unique to each sensor. For the doubters, yes, they do need to be programmed into the car. As far as I know, only the OEM scan tool can program them.

$120 doesn't sound too bad for me personally, minus the $55 the quoted you for TPMS, it costs you less than $70 for balancing all 4 tires~ i think it's a good deal.
I called richmond lexus 2day, they said :

1)programming is $50
2)mount and blance 19" is $150 (includes programming).


you have to reprogram your stcok one too?

and do you still have the invoice that shows how much they charge you? if you do, scan or fax me so I can ask them why they charge me more.

A little while ago I bought 4 new rims, tires and TPMS from tirerack.com. Everything came mounted and balanced already. I asked my Lexus dealer and they said it would be $350-$400+ 4hours labor to program the TMPS to my car. They said they would need to unmount the tires to program the TPMS to my car. I took my car to a local Toyota dealer and they did it for $95 total and at most a hour to do the work without having to unmont the tires.

Good Luck

so I have to do my new wheels & tires at Toyota or Lexus dealers? I'm getting coilovers, new wheels+tires next week and was thinking to have Advance mount them on for me, but now it seems like ADV can only do coils since the TPMS need to be programmed by Toyota/Lexus.
Can anyone tell me what's the best/cheap way of doing it? I've used all my money on the wheels, and don't want to spend another 300 bucks for setting up the TPMS..

Anything would help!! Thanks!!!

you can still mount your TPMS and have the wheel install first,
program the TPMS after.
Cost for the programming is around 60 something.
I've done mine at regency lexus. took them 30 mins to program.

60 sounds ok as long as they don't unmount the tires and charge me the labor. Thanks!!
