Default A few questions about wheels and TPMS!

Hello peoples, so i have a few quick questions. Im thinking about getting these rims for my tc, but im not quite sure i understand this TPMS stuff. So, to make it quick and easy

I want to buy these rims here

http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/Wheel...ip&showRear=no

Will my current TPMS fit or do i need new ones? Also, will these look good on a flint mica TC?

This is what the warning reads :
The original sensors from your original wheels can be used or you may purchase sensors from Tire Rack.

but this here throws me off: Only OE TPMS sensors from OE alloy wheels will fit in the alloy wheels we sell. Sensors from OE steel wheels will not work in alloy wheels.

you fail to search.

what year is your tC

05-06 use the ABS wheel speed sensors and do not have separate TPMS sensors

07 and newer have separate sensors in the tires that have to be swapped or replaced with different wheel/tire sets.

end thread.

Re-Open thread, it's an 08 TC.

I searched this time and found my answer.
