Looks like your gonna have to use your stock instead of the volk valve stem. Unless you go with the zip tie or pipe bomb method. Maybe other memeber here can shine in more.

Peter, are you saying that they only work for the ones with extended valve stems like the ones on multi-piece? If you're not using the adapters, do you wanna sell them to me?

From my understandings, yes. There isn't a place for the TPMS to sit if you use the adapter on my wheel. Yeah I'll sell them to you.

Dormant blue. They are close to mag blue but not quite. It is an intense color and my car is GFM. They will be on the car friday, have some fender work to do to squeeze them in there. Pics to follow.

Bummer. Do you happen to have any pics of where the adapter was supposed to go but couldn't fit? I'm having trouble visualizing how it wouldn't fit, even in a one piece.

Man my wheels came out way more purple than expected. However when the light hits it right the blue pops hardcore. I have a decent camera but suck at taking pics so i can not get the color to come out in pics well at all. Finally finished up all of the fender work PITA by the way. Alignment tomorrow and the last little problems will be good to go i belive. And i do have center caps but waiting to put them in.

lol ALOT. The fronts are rolled, fender tabs are shaved. The rears are shaved, and i mean 100% shaved flush inside. Pulled 6ish mm. And i am still having a little rubbing. The toe is out pretty bad in the back so we THINK that when we zero it out the rubbing will go away.
