TPMS
When you guys get new wheels put on, do you take tpms from factory wheels and put in your new one?

I have done both. But I prefer to buy new ones from TireRack instead of re-using the MB ones. If you do a search, the MB ones seem prone to stem breakage (which I experienced first hand) whereas the ones TireRack sells seem to have a more durable/flexible stem.

Hey guys! I'm buying a set of after market wheels for my w204. Will the tpms fit straight on the wheel or do I have to do some drilling or any changes like that? Also I wonder are there any differences between American and European w204's when it comes to the tpms? If someone could send me a link to the correct item to buy I would really appreciate it!

No difference. Should be simple bolt in. Some earlier made wheels (pre 2001) will not work.
