Re-using TPMS

doc1911 · 07-23-2007, 07:46 PM

I did a search and could not find if you can use your old (origonal) TPMS on a set of new aftermarket (probably Volk's) wheels. Do I need new ones or can I re-use?

You can reuse. I'm not sure if you need anything else for it to work. I'm swapping mine onto a set of volk's this thursday/friday. So I'll be sure to update you when I see what happens.

Yes you can, but you will have to unmount the original tires to get the sensors and use the valve stems as well. Not a good idea if you plan on re using the original RFs in the future.

Most Volks wheels will accomodate your original TPMS, depending what model you got. If you have the TE37 or the CE28. It should work just fine.

+1, I just bought another set of TPMS from Gary over at Tire Rack for my new wheels so I wouldn't have to dismount my stock runflats.

Most people get new ones(so they can switch between either wheels so they dont dismount), but you can use your old ones.
