Question about TPMS sensors

[toxik]

I got a quick question regarding TPMS sensors. I just bought new wheels and plan on getting tires once they come in. I don't have TPMS sensors for them, and I'm not sure if it's a good idea to unwrap my stock wheels take the TPMS sensors off and put em on the new ones.... only because it seems like this would be a lot of work or money for the labor. Can any of u guys who have non-stock wheels chime in on what I should do.

P.S. I won't be putting the wheels on myself but through a shop rather.

Actually I had this done on my new work xt7's. I took it into the shop they took the stock wheels off the car, then popped the tires off, moved the TPMS onto my work XT7's and put on the falken 452's. They charged me only 50$ to do it, seems like a small price to pay.

how much are the sensors? because if you use the stockers for winter, it would be a ***** to switch it back and forth every little bit... id rather have 2 sets of rims/wheels each with the sensors..save you time and money on the long run

If you mean two sets of wheels with two sets of senors every time you change your wheels you will need the tires sensor system reset, it does not work with two sets of sensors. Which is a 50$ charge.

hey whats up, i actually lucked out and found a set of four on ebay. I dont have the part number on hand but you can do a search on ebay for them. I wouldnt advise taking apart your factory set so you can be covered in case of an emergency. My friend installed my wheels with my sensors that i bought from ebay. After a day the tire light came on and i waited till i needed an oil change. Paid 50 bucks and they recalibrated the sensors and been fine ever since. I would just call nissan to get the exact model number of your TPMS, it not ebay they are plenty on online wholesale nissan dealers i did a quick search they go for 75$ each!!

Hope this helps!

well that's kind of the problem for me hehe, I don't wanna spend the extra money for TPMS sensors if I already have them on another set of wheels. They are quite expensive imo.

I scored 4 of the sensors from a guy who was getting rid of them for $50 while i was at the dealership. Our sensors are also used in the 08 titans. painted them plack with epoxy paint and installed them. Nothing to it. What stinks is that the computer can only hold the frequency of one specific sensor at a time. so when winter comes, I'm back to square one!

It's too bad we can't buy a set of sensors that have the same frequency that is already in the tires so that no re-coding would be involved with the summer/winter swap.
