So, got new wheels on the way and ordering some tires today. Obviously need to take them to a tire shop and have them remove the old, mount the new tires on rim and put on car. Problem is, I wanted to buy some TPMS...but nobody has the Bluetooth in stock. Called Tesla, they don't answer the phone at the service department, say to email them, so I did, 5 days later still nothing.
Anybody have the shop take the tpms off the original aero 18s and transplant to new wheel and then put the tires back on the old wheel, guess it needs new valve stems with no TPMS to make them whole/usable in a sense somewhat?
Any other issues. Happen to have a local Tire Kingdom that has been pretty good with a few other things related to other cars right across from my neighborhood. Want to ensure nothing gets hosed.
Also, going to lower the car....so likely shouldn't need an alignment with just a wheel swap and when I get my lowering setup, take it to that shop who does Tesla/EV stuff to have them install and align?
Thanks
