If the TPMS sensors of the original wheel are compatible with the new wheel then yeah, it should fix your problem. The sensors don't care what wheel they're in as long as they can mount and seal up fine.

TPMS valves are same with all wheel sizes. The only concern is the aftermarket wheel is TMPS friendly due to mounting surface varies by style.

Thumbs up

I have a set of Mandrus (Manheim) and a set of Vossens(CV1's).......both great wheels......I am hooked on HRE now so I don't use them much anymore, but still good wheels for the price......
can't go wrong with either one IMO........

good luck OP.......


and in case you are from a far off land, I'm sorry some member is making fun of the way you type.......

again, good luck OP
