TPMS Sensors - What to Buy?
 
Hey guys. I've not a new set of wheels that will be going on the car in the spring. I'd like to buy a second set of TPMS sensors so that I can have them on my winter tires as well. What should I buy? I don't want to buy cheap aftermarket sensors, but I will buy NICE ones. However, I'm tempted to just buy the OEM Subaru sensors. I'll be having the tires mounted on the wheels at TireRack. Do I just need to buy four of these and hand them to the folks at TireRack along with the wheels and I'll be good to go? (I like the black stems. The wheels are black, so fancy, chrome stems will just look bad.)

Always found with things like sensors that just going OEM tends to give the best results. Knockoff and cheap aftermarket ones just simply don't work or fail very early with this sort of things so the little extra cost is worth the peace of mind for me.

Yeah, same. I tend to go OEM on things unless there is a CLEAR benefit to going aftermarket. I'll likely just order four of those in the link I posted.
