Default Stock or aftermarket TPMS

Hello all

I plan on purchasing a set of 8089 PC rims. My questions are:

1) Is anyone running the factory TPMS valve stems on their aftermarket rims or are you using the plain rubber valve stems?

2) can the stock TPMS valve stems work on these rims? If not would I need to purchase aftermarket ones to have that TPMS feature...

Please advise, thank you..





Pro Comp Xtreme Alloy Series 8089
Part Number: PXA8089-6873

* 16x8, 5 on 5 Bolt Pattern
* Backspace = 4.5 in.
* Hub Centric = No
* Max Load = 2200lbs
* Offset = 0mm
* Finish = Gloss Black

Stock ones will fit. My tire guy had to tape the sensor to the inside of the rim to get the tire on, if not they stick way out on the pro comp rim, but it was no problem and they work fine.

I have those same wheels. They just moved the tire sensors from my old wheels on to my new 8089 wheels. No biggie.

Thank you for the offer, at $500 that is a good deal...However, I was leaning more towards purchasing 16" rims though....

Thanks....
