Default Aftermarket Rims/TPMS question

I bought me a set of chrome casino rims today and was curious if anyone has issues with the TPMS with aftermarket rims? Does the light stay on constantly or anything?

If you're talking about the tire pressure monitoring system, I think you only have to worry if you own an 06 or 07.

The previous years use the antilock braking system to evaluate the tire pressure. The 7th gens have a sensor inside the rim that sends the pressure info to the computer.

Smile anwser Jason question

To Jason
you may need to know that whether your rims are fixable to sensor, and as I know now angles are fixable on tires unless angles of sensors are flexable.
I know myers sell aftermarket TPMS sensors from orange, and you may ask from myers.
