Default Aftermarket Wheels with Factory TPMS

I'm buying the same diameter wheel, is there any way that I can reuse my factory TPMS sensors? or can I use the aftermarket ones that go in the valve stem? I have a 2008 F150 with the sensors held on by bands in the well of the rim.

I would venture to say yes providing the new bands fit around the rim.

Not very familiar with the TPM system as I have an 05.

You can re-use your sensors and cradles but, you will need new bands.. the OEM bands have to be cut off due to factory crimp.

You can reuse or buy aftermarket valvestem style. Keep in mind the batteries in your oem tpms are 8 years old and won't last forever.
