What did you pay to have sensors swapped out?

    Ok, here’s the situation...
    I just got one hell of a deal on a slightly used set of trd pro wheels with ridgegrappler tires on them. I called over to discount tire (where I typically buy from) and asked what it would cost to have my tpms swapped out and the new shoes put on. They quoted me $250.00 (and said they can’t do it right now because of coronavirus and it’s not an emergency- which I completely understand and don’t have a problem with). That seems pretty pricey. What did you pay for that??

    I went to America’s tires and dude charged me 100 bucks to swap out my wheels and tires with the sensors for 100 bucks out the door.

    took my wife’s Camry a few weeks after at the same place and put the stock wheels and tires back on and swapped the sensors for 80 cuz it was a Camry.

    hopefully that helps you out.

    edit: I think America’s Tires is discount tires but on the west coast. Don’t quote me on that though.

    Well out of curiosity I looked up America’s Tire. I think the drive there might cost me more than I’d save. The closest one was over 2000 miles away! Rofl

    I am looking to do similar but just have my sensors moved onto a set of 20” TSS Rims with tires already mounted. Costco is supposed to be reasonable on this I plan on calling them tomorrow for a quote.

    When I found a set of PRO wheels I was charged 100 bucks to have my original TPMS sensors removed from my TRD wheels and installed on the PRO wheels. Takes about 5 minutes per wheel.

    Not many yet, mostly stock.
    I think a paid 55.00 for 4 aftermarket when I bought the last set of wheels and tires from America’s Tire a few years ago. That price is in the ball park. Good luck

    That's a steal, I just had my sensors moved over, and tires mounted at Les Schwab and it was $227. I saw the price list that the guy used to charge. 17" $40/a wheel 18" $50 a wheel 19" $55/a wheel 20" $60/a wheel 22" $70/a wheel

    Crazyness just a blanket price per size of wheel and then the $27 bucks was for TPMS rebuild kit for all the sensors...

    The place I went with is literally a 1 man shop in the small town I live in. He’s always busy, and actually seemed happy to do it for me. When he got done, he stood back and said “damn, those do look a lot better than the old ones!”
