After-market wheels and tire pressure sensors
just received my GT 40 chrome wheels, and found out goodrich could not mount because of tire pressure sensors. Ford can, but new bands for sensor cost $70 PER WHEEL! Anyone else have this experience, or did Freedom Ford see me coming?

It's straightforward enough to do. The Ford clamps are basically v.long hose clamps, but you may need a special crimp tool to secure them?

I seen one this morning it's the base of the valve stem that is inside the tire, I think if the stem fits it can be changed but you may need to get a seal kit with the proper O rings, and who ever does it should have a wand that they calibrate each wheels sending unit with the cars pc , so it jnows which tire is which. cool but a more of a pain & cost then to change over.

To the best of my knowledge, the 07 (and perhaps late 06) cars have the cradle type. Are you sure the wheels you saw were from a late 06/07 Mustang GT?
