Default TPMS sensors?
What are you all doing about your TPMS sensors once you switch out your OEM stock wheels and tires for after market set ups? I heard the TPMS light starts to blink if not in place?

ignore the light... or get a programmer (procal, superchips flashpaq, etc) that can adjust the TPMS threshold or turn it off.

I had my tire shop swap out the old ones and put them into my new wheel/tire combo. Then I used AEV Procal to tweak them to work properly. Finally I just shut them off.

Or install the sensors on your new wheels. I've done it several times.

What do you mean "to work properly"? I have installed mine in to 4 sets of wheel/tire combos without any adjustment or problems.

The challenge is being sure the rims you buy protect the lame aluminum risers.
