Reuseable TPMS valve kit
 
Are they reuseable? Also, are they universal? I'm getting the valve kit to be installed with tpms sensor. Got a new set of wheels last night.

Thanks

Are these correct way to install them? America Tire want to charge me $5 for the installation. Please help me out. Thanks.

i got the tpms from tirerack and have since moved them to different rims. These were movable no problem without a rebuild kit. they just unscrew and screw back together

The sale tried to rip me off $7 each. He told me they were not reuseable. I'm pretty sure they are.

It's called TPMS service pack. They cost around $3 each. Reason why you should change them to keep the tpms sealed. Its better to change then risk the air seeping out and causing damage to the tire because of low pressure. If you don't you can reuse but there is a chance something might go wrong. Yes that the correct way to install them in the pic's you have ..... need to torque them at 36 inch pounds not ft pounds ......... if you don't they are going to seep. Good Luck

Part # if you need it is: Dill 1100

^this. It's worth the extra security to just replace the service pack any time a tire is removed for service. Over time the rubber grommets can become torn, lose, or dry-rotted (in warm dry climates).

My tires were only 1500. Removed the tpms for after market wheels

America Tire wants $7 each and $5 labor to install. I told the guy that Id do that by myself. It is BS. If I know $3each, Id do that instead.

The only part might not be reuseable was the rubber grommets. I have read that from forums and honda also advised not to reuse compressed grommets.
