Dealing with TPMS when changing tires?

Tsuyoi · 12-07-2013, 05:44 PM

So I'm swapping my summer tires for all seasons, and I'm planning on using the original rims. Do I need to get any extra parts for the TPMS system, or would the original one transfer over without any additional parts?

I'll be having the tires shipped directly to the installer from tirerack, and don't want to get there for installation and find out I'm missing parts lol.

I'm switching form Continental ContisportContacts to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S if that makes any difference.

As far as I know the tpms should transfer over to your new tires as they're already on your OEM wheels.

No reason to buy a new set of sensors just for new tires.
