Hey guys, I've been looking all over for a source to replace the TPM's in my wheels (getting new steel's mounted) and need the rubber ones vs. the metal ones. Can anyone provide a part # (OE or generic) or a link to purchase them?

Thank you!

You got to use the correct part# TPMS,if not they will not be detected by the system.In most cases if you have metal stemmed sensors you must use that part # only for replacements.

The sensor is attached to the stem with a small screw. You should be able to replace the stems and still use the sensors.

get the part number from your dealer and then search that number on ebay.

Thank you for the replies guys, been dealing with bigger issues. Suspension components and new wheels are here but not time to put them on. I'll take the advice on the sensors and go that route!
