Need more info cause my SSR MS3 aren't TPMS compatible and my warning light is really bugging me. I don't want to do the pipe bomb mod cause I want the sensors.

multi-piece SSR wheels are not TPMS compatible, and there are no TPMS adapters for mutli-piece SSR wheels.

however, as rookieIS has posted, you can drill a second hole for the sensors.

alternatively, you can use a TPMS strap kit to strap the sensor to the barrel of the wheel:
