Default New Wheel Question

I will be replacing my OEM wheels on my 04 Coupe with 18" wheels up front and 19" wheels on the rears - the wheels are coming off a Z06 so there are no TPMS's. Will this create any problems on the 04 or do I need to add a set of TPMS's to the wheels ?

Thanks
Bob

There shouldn't be any issues. Be sure to keep your current sensors away from the car. If they are nearby the system will pick up. If they have no pressure you will get flat tire messages.

Speaking from experience.

Everytime you start up, you'll get a "Serv Tire Mon Sys" indication on the DIC. Just reset the DIC and you're good to go. I believe you should be able to install your TPMS sensors on the Z06 wheels & continue to get pressure monitoring though.
