hollywood996tts has a spectacular aura about

OEM tpms or Discount Tire aftermarket?

Big difference in cost. $250 for 4 or around $250 for each oem.

Whats your experience?

Thanks,

Tom

It may depend on your wheels? I just got a set of Champion RG5s and was told they are designed to fit OEM TPMS, not aftermarket.

Suncoastparts sells them for 155.00/ea which is still a lot.

The DT ones were learned by the car so no more code but not a fan of the black hard rubber stems. Oh well it was all of $240 for parts and install so I'll live with it for now.
