Default Tire pressure sensors

I have a 99 vert. I just replaced my stock wagonwheels with aftermarket z06 style wheels. My sensors wont fit on the new wheels. does anyone know if there is a adaptor for these, or if the 01-04 sensors will work. If not can i disable the tire pressure sensor reading, so it wont read "service tire sensors"?

Lots of folks purchase bands to mount sensors on after-market wheels. That being said, are you sure they won't fit on your new ones? They should fit if the new ones are to OEM specs. To your other questions: NO, '01-'04 sensors WILL NOT work on your '99 (if you are being told the new sensors will fit these new rims, then your old sensors will fit as well). Also, NO, you can not turn off the TPM system to eliminate the message on your model year. It can only be turned off on an '01-'04.
