Just got my 22"SRT replicas and not sure what to do with the tpms. Should I swap the ones from the stockers, buy new ones or bypass them all together. If new. Where would be a good place to get them. Oem or are there any good aftermarket ones. Who is running without them? Chime in folks...want to get these wheels on!!! Thanks guys

swapped the stock ones from the OE 17" steely to the OE 20" sport.

Why pay or not use something you already have?

Can you bypass the tpms? I sold my stocks and forgot to take the dang tpms out to put in my 35's. What's a good aftermarket brand ?

I kept my stock tires and wheels and run em in the winter . . . I bought OEM sensors on Amazon for $60 for all 4 for my new wheels . . . Change the wheels over and the truck automatically picks up the change . . . No flashing from the dealer required . . . It's a good feature to keep, these big tires are too expensive to wear out because of incorrect tire pressure, and getting out and checking them by hand is a pain in the ass when you can just hit a button and check em . . . And if you don't replace them you EVIC will ding at you every time you start the truck

Just an update. Wheels and tires with new Schrader tpms on...no warning lights immediately read them. Here is a pic with the new setup along with the Undercover tonneu. Now for an alignment.
