Where is the cheapest place to get TPMS sensors???

I am putting a different set of rims on my TL and think it would be easier to buy new ones instead of taking the ones off my current wheels. Plus I only have 390 miles on my TL so it will make it easier to sell my current wheels if they are on there. Any suggestions?

Sell them without the senors, many people do that.

Yea, but I am going up to a 19 inch rim so I will not be reusing the tires. It would cost about $20 a tire to get them taken off and regular valves put back in. I can buy a used set of sensors on Ebay for $72. So it makes more sense to get new ones but I am looking for the best price.

Am thinking the same thing, "going up to a 19", What wheel are you looking to get?

We have the exact same sensor as OE for $42 each plus shipping.

Hey Sonny,
I don't mean this maliciously but why would I pay $42 to Tire Rack when i can get brand new oem ones from the dealer for $32.33 a piece?

You wouldn't. I was not aware of the cost from your dealership. Most times we are significantly cheaper so I thought I would mention our price.

I have a set sitting at my place. OEM. Was going to use them for my rims, but ended up selling rims and tires as pieces so used the ones that came with the car, but still have this set. PM me if you want them, I'll sell them cheap (60 plus shipping for the set if that works).
