Hey CL, I am getting some aftermarket wheels put on next week and will prob order some extra TPMS to put in there but my ? is if i chose not to put them in the wheels, what would happen? Would i get alot of messages inside the car or what? Thanks

 

I think it says "low tire" and "check system". Just make a pipe bomb and throw it in the trunk. That way you can use your factory rims or aftermarket wheels without the idiot light on.

 

Wouldnt a pipe bomb blow the car up For real, what is a pipe bomb that you are referring to?

 

search pipe bomb. you'll get your answers in detail.

 

do a pipe bomb. my rims weren't tpms compatible and i left my tpms on my stocks in the garage. it never bothered me cause i have my music on all the time. i never hear it go off lol but the indicator i guess can bother you.. a little

 

Please don't do the "pipe bomb." Earlier this year, in a two month span I had three separate nails in my rear tires. Looking at the tires, I would have never known they were low on air - they looked exactly the same as they do when fully inflated. The ONLY REASON I knew they were low on air was the TPMS warning I got on the dashboard, which saved me from driving on and most certainly ruining my wheels. Please please please run your TPMS - you paid for them, and with iForged selling the set of TPMS adapters that will fix this problem on ANY wheel for as cheap as $35, there's really no reason not to.

I bought the adapters from Iforged but I did not use them, I'll sell them to you for 30 shipped if you are interested.

 

can i just put the sensors in the truck to make the light go off?

 

Sure, that'll work... if you manage to pump up your trunk to 35 psi.

 

I belive that's what a pipe bomb is for.

 

i had my wheels drilled to fit the tpms sensors in them, in a spot toward the inner barrel out of view. having the tpms sensors in my wheels have saved me numerous amounts of times fromt ruining my tires. and if you need a set of tpms sensors i have a brand new set for 200 never been programmed or used, still with bubble wrap on them.

 

I just got a set off Ebay for 100 shipped. Thanks for the info, might as well be safe.
