Not using TPMS in GT30

I really don't want to pay for an additional set of TPMS nor do I want to swap the stockers in. Has anyone skipped out on doing that, and if so what did you put in to fill the "2nd hole" they drill for the TPMS?

I am not sure what second hole you mean but I did not put the sensors on my Mayas and only problem is the stupid (!) light on my dash.

I'd recommend swapping the stock ones into the GT30's. As you know, you will get a warning light on your dash. More importantly, it is impossible to visually see if your pressure is low on 19" or 20" tires.

You can have them put standard rubber stem back into you stock wheels/tires.

You posted in this thread, I sure hope you went ahead and ordered the adapators.

You don't need adaptors with the GT30s. They are made to accept the sensors.

Main problem with swapping the stockers in is that I can't get my car and wheels into the garage at the same time conveniently.

Anyone know where to get some that can get them here by Wednesday?

You should be able to get a set of mounted tires into your car. Just stick them into trash bags so you don't mess up your seats.

No not yet but I do plan on doing it here eventually. Like I said, no problems except the light being on.
