Quick Question,
I just bought new wheels/tires/TPMS package for my 2007 550i and will not need the OEM wheels/tires/TPMS sensors. I would like to sell the original wheels, and was wondering what would be a good target price for the package. The original runflats have ~35K miles on them and will need to be replaced.
Thanks,
Zeke

Thank you.

Are they on the rims itself and then the part that sticks out is where the valve stems are?

Only reason why I ask is I recently got new tires and I didn't get them from the dealership. As an afterthought, I wondered if my TPMS were ok and if there's anything that needs to be swapped when changing tires.

I was going to deflate a tire and see if the light came on, but to save me the hassle of doing it, I thought someone might know.

TPMS are attached topart of the valve stem, inside of the wheel. If you change tires the TPM's should not be effected. All you would have to do is reset the TPM's via iDrive. If you are changing wheels, you can take your tpms off of your wheels and put them into the new ones (just had that done recently )
