Default Low tire pressure sensor in c6?

I've been thinking about buying a c6/zo6 but would prefer aftermarket wheels...........do the c6/z06s have low tire pressure sensors that have to be moved to the new wheels? I hated those old strap on ones on my 1996 LT4. So much that I took them off and sold them on ebay.

What wheels are you going to get?

CCW wheels and many others will accept the sensors in the valve stem hole, just like OE wheels.






iForged wheels need the sensors to be strapped/banded, or they can be mounted with brackets that they sell.

Thanks Bob

I liked the look of the HRE 593R's, til I found out they are about 1500 per whl! At that price, the chrome OEM wheels are a steal! Maybe there's some other brand thats a bit less. I was thinking maybe 6-700 per whl at most. I like the shiny flat part of the rim, that makes it look like it's deeper than the stock wheels
