Not sure that this has been asked in this thread, but I was wondering....
If I am only buying tires & not wheels, do I need to also get TPMS sensors? Or are those part of the wheels?
Hoping to save a little money, having just bought the car.
Thanks!
If you're buying tires that will be mounted on your existing wheels (so taking it to a tire center and having the tires mounted and switched between winter and summer each season) then you don't need to buy TPMS. You can use your existing TPMS and wheels and just have the tires mounted. If you have a second set of wheels so the tires only have to be mounted once and then it's a simple jack the car up and bolt on the winter wheels and tires, then you need a second set of TPMS.
