    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

The OEM TPMS should work in an aftermarket WHEEL that fits your Coupe. I bought new ones to go in my winter wheels so each set of wheels has their own sensors. The guys at DISCOUNT TIRE say they order units to work specifically with the OEM SYSTEM. And that any new wheel would work with them. So far no issues with either set.

Hope that is some kind of help.
 
I will say they recommend you replace the tpms sensors every time though, or at the least buy a o-ring kit/rebuild kit?

I do not know if that is just a way to make an extra $45 per rim, almost $200 extra.
