Question About Tpms


boSSsho

Recommended Posts

I have an 08 Sierra Denali and I have set of SS wheels I run all spring, summer and fall and I am sick of my TPMS message on at every start up. I would assume the Silverado SS did come with a TPMS system...does anyone have a recommendation of where to get 4 sensors?

 

Thanks so much.

none of the SSS trucks came with sensors. you will need new ones, but they have to be the new truck style or they will not work. any sensor or replacement aftermarket sensor (like from tirerack) will work just fine as long as its the rubber kind, like from 07-up trucks/suvs. the kind that takes a lock nut, like from a corvette and older truck generally will not work. (theres a p/n with the lock nut that does work comes with GM accessory wheels, but its not the same as any of the older ones)

 

PM me if you cant find them i have the p/n's at work

You guys rock...that was quick. Ok, so the SSS did NOT come with TPMS, but I can at least get some that work with the NBS 07 and up trucks. Do all GM's wheels have the same stem opening diameter so that when I get some NBS TPMS's they will fit with the older style SS Wheels? I will PM you for the part numbers unless you think Tire Rack has a good price on ones that will work just as nicely?

they sure do. will fit the SS wheels fine. and the aftermarket sensors are ALWAYS cheaper than the GM ones. i sell NAPA sensors, prob about the same if not more than the tirerack ones. the napa part number is NTH 921021, list is $69.62 each. you can also take them from your stock wheels if youd rather not spend much money. all youd need is four replacement rubber valve stems, $5 each.

So the NTH 921021 is just the TPMS, but I still need the rubber valve stems?? Are those GM rubber valve stems?

no that number is complete, sensor and valve stem. but if you reuse your stock sensors, all youd need is the valve stem which is available seperately @ $5 each. basically the sensor is a little black rectangle that screws into the back of the valve stem. and since they break quite often when attempting to swap them, its just easier to get new ones IMO.

Will do guys...thanks again for all the help. I already bought one of those TPMS programmers off Amazon too...I have the deal with the women's Armada that has Titan wheels too so hopefully I will be able to figure out the programming on these things. I will keep you posted.

hold the lock and unlock on the key fob till the truck honks twice. then you start with the tool at the front left, front right, rear right, and rear left. each time it learns the truck will honk, after it learns the last one it will honk twice if everything is learned correct.
