Suggestions please
Going to be replacing the tires on my '03 Vert. sidewalls are all cracked.
Current sensors still work but I am wondering for how long.
Since car is basically 10 years old should I go ahead and replace the TPMS sensors at the same time?
Any suggestions as to source for them, not the tires, without getting bent over? GM Parts Direct? or other?
Thanks in advance

I believe the sensors are good for 10 years +. I'd probably replace them now. Some people wait until they go but at 10 years I'd rather get it over with while I'm there getting tires vs. having to go back and have them done later.

I'd go ahead and replace the sensors when you do the tires. Gene at gmpartshouse.com has very good prices on them.

Thanks guys, I did order sensor with tires from tirerack, sensors were actually .74 cents cheaper per which is negligible but they will ship with tires so all arrive at the same time.
