Tire Press Monitor and New Wheels

![Question](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/icons/icon5.gif)
I just got my new Chrome Bullitts from American Muscle and they don't have the TMS sensors in the rims? Is this an issue? Will I see or worse "hear" an alarm or something? Can this be disabled?
Thanks
Thanks

I've heard that Discount Tire has a generic pressure band that you can use. I think you might have to go to the Ford Dealer to have them reset ti so it works. I think it costs $10 per band.
It might be worth calling your local Discount Tire and asking them.

I heard it was about $100 per band. Maybe I am wrong not sure. I have the same problem but I just press the reset button. Not a big deal. Didn't want to spend the extra money. Rather spend it on other mods.

I was told it was against the law to disable the dash reading so you will need the straps or just keep hitting reset. I did that for a time.

Are the bands around the rim inside the tire?
I called one of those takeoff places that offer wheels and tire packages and they said that they don't come with the bands? I thought since they were Factory wheels that they would already have the bands installed?
It's always something!

Yes, unless you have a special tool, but they can be pricey. This TPMS BS is expensive
You have to pay more for bands and transferring the sensors, or you have to pay for new sensors and retrain the car... and my nearest Ford dealer wants $150 to retrain my TPMS for new sensors! I still need to call tire shops around to see if they have the tool and can do it for cheaper.

$150? Geeze!
I'll ask Discount Tire if they can do when they install my new wheels/tires. I don't want to spend a extra $150!
