Question on swapping TPMS - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Sorry if this was asked before but I couldnt find the exact answer I was looking for.

Im putting my summer wheels on next weekend and Im going to have the TPMS in my stock wheels swapped over, is there anything I need to bring to my shop besides both sets of wheels and tires? The new wheels have valve stems already on them, do I need any washer/gaskets or is it as simple as unscrew from the stock and install on the new ones?

When I had mine swapped, they had to use the TPMS specific valve stems. So the the ones that came with the wheel couldn't be used.

So they wouldbe be able to swap valve stems from the stock wheels? Anyone have suggestions on where to pick a set up?

They used new TPMS specific valve stems. Ask whoever is mounting them. Mine were included since I was buying new tires (Discount Tire).
