Default TPS Compatible with Work Meister S1?!

For those who own or have owned these rims, the 3 piece one at least, do you know if the TPS is compatible with the it? I'd hate to lose this feature and I think I'd get annoyed with the warning light being on.

Thanks

I had this same question before & from what I was told, you won't be able to since it has a step lip design. You'll need the standard reverse lip in order to install the TPS on the valve location unless you can find a way to custom strap them on the wheel.

You can make the TPMS work on ANY wheel. There is a thread somewhere about it. The TPS does not have to be in the valve stem hole. I can install for anyone who needs it done.

Thanks for the input, all.

Once the rims come in, I'll trying messing with it to find a way to mount the TPS. If I buy another set of TPSs, will it automatically work with my car or does the new signal need to be configured to my car?

tps can be attached to any wheel via strap technique, of which much has been written on this site. new tps require calibration by dealer.
if the valve stem on the new wheels is long and curved, you won't be able to install the tps normally. you'll have to use the strap technique.

Thanks Z Boy, I'll look up that strap technique.

On another note, I would be able to use any stock TPS set that was made for a 350z, regardless of the year of the car it came off, correct?

i believe so. i haven't heard of our tps being redesigned lately. but they would still need to be calibrated to your car.
