Default Getting a good deal.

Hey guys, i might be getting some Raptor wheels for my truck. The only question is, can i transfer my TPMS from my original wheels to the raptor wheels. Both are 17" and both are OEM wheels. I dont know if the raptors already have them, or if they got removed. I;m just trying to do my homework before i buy them. the Raptors are off a 2013
Thanks

A lot of tire shops around here want you to put new ones in that are for your year truck, but I don't see why you couldn't swap them. Other people have done it on here. Just make sure they don't "accidentally" break all 4. Lol.

Some of those sensors are not transferable, I work at a tire shop and there Are multiple kinda of sensors, band, one piece, and a screw kind, I don't know what kind you have as I do not have sensors but a pic and I'll be able to tell

Yes you SHOULD be able to take your existing sensors out of your stock wheels and transfer them to the raptor wheels. Depending on the style of tpms you have, you may either need rebuild kits (roughly $7/ea) or new bands (roughly $10/ea). Keyword being should as there are always some instances where only certain wheels will work.
