TPMS Sensors?

When I bought a 5th wheel/tire for a full-size spare, here's what I picked up:

TPMS Sensor

At $35 per, it's up to you to figure out whether or not it's worth it to buy new ones or get a shop to take out the old ones. I agree that you may be able to make up the difference in selling the mounted tires w/ sensors.

When I rotate, I use Techstream (bought off Ebay for like $20) to swap out the spare. In my opinion, Techstream is absolutely a worthwhile purchase since it lets you play with all the customizations as well.

Just one note - if you buy new sensors, WRITE DOWN THE SERIAL NUMBERS BEFORE YOU GET THEM MOUNTED. I failed in this regard, and had to track down a scanner to read it on the tire.



So the Denso 550-0103 works for the 17 4R? Amazon seems to think I have to buy the 550-0105 to pair it with ECU. Can you confirm?
 
When I did tires and wheels I ditched the lame TPMS system. No individual pressure reading means it's near useless compared to my Express Van. I actually look at the Truck when I approach it and can feel anything more than 5lbs low just in the way it sits or drives anyway so it just wasn't worth the hassle and price to buy more sensors IMO. Your brain will ignore the light in no time. Somebody on the forum found the TPMS reader under the dash near the glovebox I think and cut or modded it. I don't know how to find it now so good luck.:doh:
