Call Crown.

I called em and- I can't remember exactly, but- they quoted me definitely under $40 for the sensors.

Hey, $30 is $30, right.

Good luck.

I have the 189s coming on my coupe, and I'm switching them out with the 230s. I called Crown and had them look up the part numbers for the valves and sensors in both wheels. They said they're the same, so they should work in the 230s. But, not knowing which wheels you were coming from and going to, I didn't include that on the previous post.

Hope this helps, and...good luck.

edit: i'm not sure where I got the $70 per from. but I just went to TireRack site

TPMS valve: $7 / $28 for 4
TPMS sensor: $40 / $160 for 4

Thanks!

Kev,

I'd call Crown. I called them earlier (as stated above) and am almost positive they gave me a better price than what you listed. Sorry, can't remember the exact price. Can't hurt...

I ran into this problem as well. I guess I'll go get the tire sensors when I have time.

[BMW335TT]

if you dont change the sensors with aftermarket wheels it will keep saying flat tire on the navigation screen?
