Which TPM sensors for steel wheels?

Hey folks, can anyone comment on which TPM sensors to use with steel wheels? My 06 has the hard stem'd version and they will not work. Looking for the rubber stem kind.

Thanks for the info!

You must use your current ones or buy new ones with the same part # as yours,which means metal stems otherwise the system will not pick them up.The rubber stemmed sensors transmit on a different frequency.

Either forgo the sensors all together or buy different rims.

OK, I will bite...how do you forego the sensors all together? I am about tired of that light coming on whenever it wants.

Just take the sensors out but you will have to live with the light and/or chime all the time.
