Missing anything?
Ok,
1. New wheels (TSW's from DocZ) - check.
2. New TPMS from Bob @ House of Wheels - check.
3. New Toyo R888's from outside vendor (no Forum Vendor's ever responded to my question about tires, so I had to go to the Outside) - check.
4. TPMS reset tool - borrow from Gary (Ntmdator) - check.
5. Torque wrench - check
6. Socket - check
7. Performance Alignment - had this for over a year - check.
8. Racing tape (heat reflective) for wheel weights - I will have to get this.
9. Beer - always have plenty of this - check!!
The wheels are coming with new lug nuts, so is there anything else I need to get? I hate this getting older business - it sucks

Jack is at home, when I swap the wheels out, I won't have to use it at the track (hopefully, but will bring it along anyway).
Air - compressor at home and one in the truck, so all is good.

Wheels arrive tomorrow, tires on Friday. TPMS sensors should be at my ship to address already.
Wednesday of next week, I'll get them all mounted and balanced. Then put them on the car.
Speaking of which, is there anything special on reprogramming the sensors to an 08?

The procedure for programming all C6 sensors using a TPMS tool is the same, so nothing different with an '08. See the video below for the procedure of how to put the car into he learn mode and how to trigger each sensor. Make sure you get a honk at each wheel (double honk at the Left Rear).
