I bought 2 sets from OE Wheels early Dec. 2010. Installed one set in winter rims, but had both sets programed at the Toyota dealer anticipating new summer rims as well.
Something has gone wrong with the set on my winter rims already ("Check system" error after about a week), so I built the pressure can for the second set, toggled to them and all has been well so far.
As said earlier, the Toyota Service Manager (an IS250 owner himself) was stunned at the price.
Now I need to go back and have Toyota tell me which sensor has failed. Gonna be costly to pull and replace the unit, but I think I will just run the canister set till I buy my summer rims and tires, then replace the defective one at my leisure.
Being cheap units, I was worried this might happen.... oh well...
