    Will my sensors for TPMS from my 20” limited wheels work on rock warrior wheels or any aftermarket 17” Wheel?

    Huh... typically that's due to an impact or something. Never adjusted one without having a problem first....
    I bet it'll help tho!

    Maybe.
    Different wheels take different angles sensors

    We made the switch. Just be sure to completely flush the brake system so there is no more DOT3 when you put the DOT4 in. There is also a correct order in which to flush the lines, and I don't recall it off the top of my head. It's important to follow the order so no old fluid is left.
