Read what i am telling you. The rims are universal, but your valve stems in the rim are not. You need valve stems from an '06+ for the light to turn off.

the bigger diameter wheels and wider tires will make a different noise than stock rims and tires.

should be normal. You may want to have the tires balanced when/if you go get the valve stems swapped.

What kind of sound? Might be the wheels rubbing the fender. I have 18's on s-techs and when I go over speed bumps i know i'm rubbing.
