How many folks are running TPMS in their aftermarket wheels
So im too cheap to buy another set of TPMS and dont want to take out the ones from my stock. Seems like a huge headache
So I am trying to see how many are not running them
Also, guys with 20's with 25 series profile, is there enough room to run TPMS with no problems.

I know of a bunch that had issues a few years back because of tire profile. They would lay the sensors sideways and still some would get loose after time. Then, I remember some low profile sensors coming out but dunno about price.

I do... but my tires are 35f & 30r. No problem so far... In case you don't know, you could order a set from Luke @ Tire Rack (a sponsor here). I think it only costed me like $130ish. Be sure to give him your VIN so you'll get the right ones as there are several different frequency.

Pardon me for quoting wrong numbers... I just checked the invoice again... I paid $365 for all 4 including shipping. 
And I think the dealer quoted $300-400 for 1 sensor.

I was not able to transfer my TPM sensors from my 18" stock wheels to the CLS55 19" wheels..
The guy who sold me the wheels told me that the 19"s used a different system and had no pre drilled holes to mount the sensor.
I never really looked into it.. but it would be nice to know if I could mount them.
My sensors are from MY03 and the CLS55 wheels are 2007
