I'm considering buying a set of Mille Miglia Evo 5 wheels but don't know if they will work with my 04's TPMS...can anyone help?

If the shop who mounts your wheels knows what they are doing its pretty straight forward. There are two options.

This adapter method is cool cause you just take the TPMS out of the stock wheels screw to these and thats it. The guy who did mine did not want to do this because the hole for my TPS on my wheels was in the middle of the rim. Meaning if I got a flat the TPS and sensor adapter would be crushed.

Option 2 is banding the sensor to the wheel in the ridge between the lip and the flat part of the rim (if you look at a rim without a tire you will see a little valley behind the lip). This way if I get a flat it wont get crushed. They work perfectly. Once you first get the car back you have to drive a little for them to come on. Once thats done you are good to go.http://www.vividracing.com/cat....html
