This will save you the task of "retraining" the sensors.
Stupid question??

Stupid question??
I just bought new 08 rims for my 06 and are going to change out my rims shortly. Are the tire pressure sensors transferrable? They sent me new O-rings with the new rims. Are these for the sensors?

Not a stupid question, and yes, you should transfer the sensors. A tire shop that knows Corvettes will have no problem with this.

Yes, the sensors are transferable and it is standard practice to replace the sensor seals. A good shop will also "location mark" (LF,RF, ect.) the sensors to avoid having to reset them.

I had it done to equalize the wear on the inside shoulders of the run flats. Only cost me $100 including the balance. By doing so, I got an extra 5,000 miles of use from the O E tires.
