TPMS cost new vs. used
Is the part outlined in red the but you guys are talking about.

the outline in red is build kit... Are you planning to use the TPMS and the kit you have? I think you are missing washer and rubber piece.

Tire pressure sensors have a life span and can start to fail after about 5 years. Also, because of the angle that the metal valve stem is set to the right sensor may not fit on aftermarket wheels. If you choose to use old sensors I would recommend you replace not only the nut, but also the rubber seal and valve core. If your a Costco member you can pick up a complete set of rubber seals, valve core, and nut for about $10. If you decide to replace the sensors you can get a new aftermarket sensor that has an adjustable angel valve stem with the seal kit for about $65.
Does anyone have a link of a specific ebay seller that sells tpms? Besides the TPMS, all you need are the valve cores, washer, and nuts right?
I called discount tires today and they wanted $240 for swapping over the tpms from my OEM rims to my new rims. I started laughing at that price.

i called another discount tire and they were willing to swap over my old tpms for $28 since i was buying 4 tires from them.
They also price matched the tires to a random website i found; guess certain discount tires are better
