Tire Pressure Sensors
My wheels are finally in, and I would like to put the tires on. However, I still don't know what to do about the tire pressure sensors.
1. I have heard that the dealership should move the tire pressure sensors and to not trust tire/ wheel shops.
2. If that is the case I don't trust the dealership mounting and balancing the tires on my new rims.
So what do I do? Put my car on jack stands, take the stock wheels to the dealership, have them take off the tires, transfer the pressure sensors, and then take the new rims to the shop to have them install the tires?
Should I just buy new sensors?
I have seen several people with aftermarket wheels on the board, and was just wondering how you guys did it.
Thanks.
