Default Volk whells and Tire pressure sensor

Is there a problem to mount the tire pressure censors when changing to Volk wheels. Will the sensor mount on the new valve stem - if that's where it goes.

I think I've seen a couple of posts on this subject - can someone refresh

I've just done it on the TE-37's and no problems at all.

But this is different depending on which volk wheels you get. I believe it depends on the type of construction (i.e. reversed lip etc. since that changes the structure on the inner wall of the valve stem)

Does the TPS fit the same way like the stock or you need some modification to make it fit?

It fits the same way as the stock one. No modification needed.

Just be careful if you're going for larger wheels (i.e. from 18s to 19s especially). The lower profile tires you'll need may not provide enough room for the sensors and you could break them.

Where is kartoyz? I order a set of TE37 19s and don't want them hacked by Wheel Works.
