Can descent tire shops/mechanic eg. big-o tires, can do this retrofit? I assume steps are, remove tire, put sensors on rim, tires back, rebalance?

Yes, but the sensors only work for a few weeks, I had to returned mine. It's not worth it. It's will cost you more to install than the product.

Correct. These sensors are the same style found on millions of cars worldwide. if they sell tires they'll know how to deal with TPMS sensors.For technical assistance service techs can call 800 288 1804 and speak to one of our technical service reps who can answer any questions.

Maybe. You might have to shop around as "liability" will scare most away. I did my own imstall after having the tires bead pushed off the rims. Then had to them reseat them a day later and balance. You will need to get them balanced afterwards

We had a tire shop do it, I don't think that you can do it yourself unless you have a tire machine.

No but you may want to check and see if they make a reducer adapter that you can use.

I have done the GM relearn procedure before, it is a hit or miss on how many times it takes to get it to work. If you have a TPMS tool it makes the job much easier. I use a MaxiTPMS TS401 from Autel to do the resets, with the car in program mode just press the transmit button on tool near the sensor and the horn chirps. The big benefit is you can do all four tires in less than a minute, no more having to let air out and wait... The other option is to take the car to your mechanic and let them program it. My local tire shops are pretty good about it.

Check with you local tire dealer. Most dealers have the equipment to program the sensors. My dealer installed and programed them for me at no charge - but then I buy a lot of tires from him!!

I really dont know if you could find the wheels in rubber. You might try contacting the manufacturer to se if the have replacement wheels made of rubber that might be used on pricier upgraded models. if they have them it is easy to snap the originals off and put the new ones on. Just pinch in the little spring loaded plastic ears at the connection to the frame. Good luck.

Goodyear Service Center did it for free since we bought tires there at same time. We changed them all (sensors). They mentioned that the batteries start failing at 5 yrs, so going forward I'll plan sensor replacements around tire purchases, preventive maintenance.

Hello. Yes they can be changed. Pretty much just like a bicycle rim and tire.

There is a link to the guide of tire sizes they work on. Check the tire size, it's more important then the vehicle because tire sizes can change.

Yes, they can replace the original metal ones. This is an updated version that pull in like a conventional tire stem also the metal units don't screw into the rim they just have a nut that holds them in place, they have a rubber "washer on the inside that seals against the rim.

No, unfortunately this is not possible. Its very low in 3 wheeled model... and make it up only in 2 wheel mode

Never tried it on aback whell guess it would just need to make sure comp is set size of tire and magnet crosses sensor within the area marked on the sensor. Another thing is distance magnet is from sensor, they all have max distance beyound which sensorvwill not detect be curious to hear how it turns out

call and ask specifically (have your serial number available) i bought these and they worked flawlesly.. i had my local tire shop install them for me and they charged a fee to install them and a fee to program them (you have to do this with the correct devices) there wer no other parts required. i'm not certain what aarish is referring to.... there are only the sensor inside the tires and the computer for the system.

No, but you can swap out your current sensors. These wheels are TPMS compatible and we have them available.

I have not tried to reset my vehicle for a different tire size, but I don't think it can. I would get online with OTC and ask them that question.

I wish i could say yes or no. Your model looks bigger then mine. To be honest since it was just one weight i never went to trouble of trying it on mine. I just bought some aggressive rear tire . sorry i am no help.
