Default OH crap!!!

Hi I'm new to this forum, I just bought my 08 jk 2 days ago, I just found out that the 08 has tpms, I have already ordered pro comp alloys #7289 and 33 ' trxus mt tires from 4 wheelparts. Does anyone know if they supply aftermarket sensors, I shot them an e mail about the situation but since its sunday and tomorrow is a semi holiday I probably won't hear from them until 2008. It would really help if anyone here has had the same situation with them and what happened, it would be fine if I could just send another E mail and tell them to include the sensors. Being as all 2008 vechiles have tpms you would think the big aftermarket supply houses would be all over this if for no other reason but to have something else to charge you for. It would be real easy to put a ? in the online order form ( do you want TPMS sensors Y/N) Thanks in advance for any info.

Hey Bob, welcome aboard. Good to see another Marylander.

You have a couple of options, you can use the sensors from your old wheels or buy new ones. If you choose to buy new ones talk to Travis @ Discount Tire, (he is a member just look in the sponsor section) He will hook you up with some new sensors. (as a side note, when you buy tires in the future use Travis too....service is great and he will match any price and shipping is free)

Again....Welcome aboard.....you should do the Rausch Creek run with us on Sat the 5th and Sun the 6th....allot from this board are going and you could not ask for a better group of people.

Hey Bob, welcome.

Just like Balt said you can use your old ones. I've used my original TPMS sensors in 2 different sets of aftermarket wheels.
