2004 Factory Eddie Bauer wheels/tires

[GAINMOB]

hey reg442...will the sensors from ebay work...what do you suggest since youre the subject matter expert?

i dont follow you when you say you dont want to split them up...we're curious to know if we can put them on our 24's...

I was talking to the guy who asked if I wanted to sell 1 wheel.

 

[reg442]

you could score some on ebay, but i've found tire rack and our local autozone to be way less then the dealer.. then as long as your local installer knows how to program them. or just switch your sensors from your factory wheels. the only down fall to that is you have to switch twice a year which would be about 120.00 in labor every year.

so if i use the old ones...i'd have to do it again...ebay or autozone...i'd be done...right?

i found a sensor for $65 on ebay...is that too much? whats a good price?

 

[GAINMOB]

ok...screw ebay for the sensors...unless you find these...

hella sensors on www.tirerack.com you get a discount if you buy the rims from them...but it'll be around $250. so i'll get to saving funds so i can get this done...and the keys/fobs from ebay.

65 isn't bad the whole sale price that i got from my vendors is $45-$80 retail is normaly $110-$150.
the cheapest way is to just reuse your origanal sensors, i have only used the hell twice and it was for and audi a8 and a 7series bmw. just make sure that they will work with your factory computer and that you don't need to do anything else for them to work.

 

[maynard]

how about $250?

 

[WHOISMOOTOO]

So to swap out the sensors from my factory wheels to my 24's all i would need is the new bands? What would i be replacing twice a year?
