Hey how much have you guys paid to have TPMS taken off of wheels that still have tires on them?

I don't have TPMS in my Z.

I was charged $15 per tire to have my tires mounted so hopefully you should pay no more than that.

Hmm yeah so you would think it would be no more than price to mount a tire plus maybe $5 max a wheel for a new valve stem...

For some reason the shop I go to has a specific "TPMS Service" which is an additional $25 per wheel! And they charge $25 to mount/balance a wheel. Yeah you do the math. =(

I would just call around, that doesn't sound right.

My fault. I can't find anyone that will remove my TPMS for a reasonable price. He's a great guy to deal with though!

Attaboy!!

I would make a thread in the forum below and in your regional forum:

https://my350z.com/forum/wanted-409/

There are still plenty of sets out there to be had.

Awesome! Props for tracking it too!

I was considering a 18x9.5 square setup to keep LMGT's, how do you like it?

Do you mostly do HPDE / NASA or AutoX too?
