Default TPMS Transfer

Is it easy to transfer TPMS from my chrome Z06 wheels to my newly purchased iforged classics? I assume a wheel shop would have to transfer them so how much will this cost?

It depends on whether or not your new wheels are machined to accept tire pressure sensors. If you're not sure contact iforged.

How old are your sensors?
This is a good time to get new ones if they are 8yrs old or so.
If you reuse your old ones, have the shop keep the sensors in the same locations (corners of the car) or you will need to "re-learn" them.

I assume they are original ones so maybe it is time to get new ones.

The transfer to the new rims or the installation of new TPMs to the new rims is pretty easy. Not sure what your tire shop would charge for the little bit of extra labor but it should be very minimal. Just don't let them go and put the gorilla arm on the retaining nut when they tighten them.

Give Gene at GMparthouse a call and he will fix you up if you want new TPMs. Excellent pricing.
