Tire Pressure sensors in 2006 wheels?
Can someone help and confirm that the 2006 wheels don't have any tire pressure sensors in them?
I am putting my old R500 18" wheels in classified and I just want to make sure.
Thanks in advance.

TPMS in R500
My 2006 R500 has the TPMS sensors in them, just tells you if you have a significant loss of pressure - not the actual pounds of air pressure. If you are selling them, PM me interested in upgrading my current set, I have the 10 spoke wheels and don't care much for them

I thought 2006 R500 is using the TPWS and not TPMS which means there are no tire pressure sensors inside the wheels and the sensors are located at the ABS. Sorry to ask but have you seen the sensors inside the wheels in person? Just want to make sure.
Regarding my wheels, I am selling the 5 spoke OEM 18".
