Default Help Needed ..!

Hi everyone,

I have a 2010 IS350 and planning to get some new wheels, but I was wondering how I can be sure the new wheels I get will be completely compatible with the tire pressure sensors, etc, that came with the cars. Also, where can I get the wheels installed and what do people usually do with their old wheels?

Thanks so much guys...!

first welcome to the forum also use search feature helps out a lot. before you buy your wheels check and see if they are TPMS compatible. If not you have a couple of options 1st option is TPMS adaptors that iforged sells. 2nd option is something called a "pipe bomb" use the search feature and you will see a write up on that.any local tire shop should be able to install your new wheels and tires. As for your OEM wheels thats up to you some people use them as winter set up or sell them.

you should check the wheels you about to buy have option tpms compatible.because your car have tpms sensor.you can go ebay buy another set tpms for your second wheels.i bought my like 70 $.dont go to dealer buy tpms because its gonna cost you over 200$.you live in Ca so you can sale your old wheels or keep it like back up.i think you should keep it because sometime you hit pot hole and need repair you gonna need old wheels and plus if you gonna sale your oem wheels.you dont make much money.i keep my.if you know the size of your tires,you can go tirerack.com and order and you can find wheels installed in tirerack section by put in your zip code.i just google them and i call around tires shop.i deal with them by paying cash.they usually charge 150$ to 200$ to install and balance for 4 tires.i hope this help you.sorry for my english.
