    About 3 weeks ago I purchased aftermarket tires for my '18 from the OEM aluminum wheels. I kept all the TPMS sensors since I didn't feel the need to replace them. Every since I got the tires my TPMS light comes on and I take the tires back to Les Schwab and they resync the sensors. Its been going on for 3 weeks now with no fix. Right now my truck is at the dealership checking the sensors to make sure they didn't damage them. The odd thing is, is that after I get the sensors synced again, they work fine in city. But as soon as I drive about 20 miles on the highway the sensor comes back on. Anyone else have issues with aftermarket wheels on '18 and up

    Had same issue. They reset, it works fine but as soon as I drive 20+ miles, light came on. Ended changing all sensor and so far so good. Only difference is I went from steel wheels to alloys so I needed different sensors

    Returned from the dealer and Les Schwab did mount the sensors backwards because the factory ones wouldn't work the original way. I was told that I need to get new sensors that fit my wheels :(

    Still no luck on my sensors, I changed from aluminum to alloy, but the dealership said that the steel wheel sensors fit better. I may just have to switch to those.
