Newest upgrade! 8000k hids for my lowbeams and 3000k hids for my fogs! I'm gonna restore my headlights back to clear soon, and then the lights will really look good

dmk08 i used those straps and have had no issues as long as they install the TPMS correctly otherwise it can come loose. But my SSR's had no other choice i did that i would suggest since you can get adaptors just order them.

Discount tire was actually able to use some generic TPMS sensor that attach to their valve stems on my car. This was great because now my stocks and aftermarket wheels can be interchanged with no dashboard light!
