Hey everyone, looking for a few words here:

I recently bought a new wheel to replace the one I busted from a small incident a couple months back. Sooner than later, the TPMS came on. I guess I thought it would "match up" and work with the existing sensors but it was just wishful thinking.

I've been looking up as much as I can about the TPMS to see if I can do this myself because I feel that the dealer will just wrench out more money from my wallet. They also took off the original valve stem cap so now I have mismatched caps (nothing serious but very annoying...). That's just a OCD thing though.

For people with aftermarket wheels, how did you deal with the TPMS issue? Has anyone had stock replacements, etc.?
