Installing New rims/tires question
Hi Guys,
Bought a set of after market rims and new tires (BFG DKW's) and have a question about the sensors. Is there any "o" rings that need to be replaced and is any way to check on the life of the batteries while the sensors are off the car. The vehicle is a '98 with 24k miles.
Thanks Jim

Jim, if you have the original sensors, they are probably near the end of their useful life. With new wheels and tires I would spring for new sensors as well. They will certainly fail one at a time and you'll be spending more time and money at the tire store than if you replace them now. I think the "O" rings are #9s.
