TPMS works with which set of wheels?
Hello, I just got me a 06 Acura TL and I was looking to get some Work's Varianza. A friend of mine said they won't work with the TPMS unless I drill a hole in the wheels. Can anyone tell me if this is accurate and which wheels would work with it?

From your other thread... You have to use bands becasue 2 piece wheels have a 4 inch L shaped valve stem that starts in the CENTER of the barrel of the wheel. Single piece wheels have the valve stem hole int eh outer FACE of the wheel.
You cannot mount the sensors properly in the center of wheel.
