| Post subject: | Tire pressure sensor with Moabs??? |
I'm currently looking around for a set of Moabs but was wondering what affect switching rims would have on the tire pressure sensor. I have an '05 but don't have the overhead thing, just the light that comes on in the dash. Where are the sensors located on the rims/tires? Can they be switched over to the Moabs or do Moabs have them as well? If not what would I need to do to keep the light off for good? Thanks |

The sensor is part of the valve stem. they can be bought at ebay for $50.. |

So could the stems then just be taken off the rims I have now and put onto the Moabs? |

ask jeepjeepster , he had the sensor on his OEM and he might have moved them into carragars when he got them, but I am not sure. I am just guessing he wouldn't want to lose the functionality. |

They should work with any wheels that aren't steel. Steel wheels may block the RF signal from the sensors. |

Thanks for the responses. It sounds like I can just switch my stems to the new rims. Anyone who has Moabs actually do this, or have any insight? |
