okay, got some 22" factory take offs, with new tires already on the rim, already balanced and everything... however, there's no TPMS in the tires, i'd have to use the one's i already have in my old tires...

how much would it run, round about, to get switch the TPMS from the old tires to the new tires, then put the new tires on the truck, and would they need to rebalance the new tires to do this? was gonna use Chabill's right here in Dutchtown, but if anyone has another recommendation, please help me out...

basically, i assume i'm getting what amounts getting "new tires" without getting the actual tire, just the labor, while i supply the products....

Sorry OP.

I'm a white guy. I don't use rims as decorations for my vehicles.

Honestly you should look at just buying 4 new tmps sensors. I wouldn't risk having some shop damage them while removing from the old rims. Even with that, tmps isn't even a big deal. Just run without them. I'm sure you're man enough to check your own tire pressure periodically

About 23 bucks a tire at your local shop for new sensors

Probably another 20 or so per tire to remove/install/remount the tire.

Why sink money into a depreciating non asset?

Chrome reverse rims will last a lifetime, but they won't dance a jig at a redlight.

i'm upsizing from 17" factory rims to 22" factory rims...

someone else wanted fancy rims, so they sold their factory rims to this company at some point, and THAT'S what i bought... their regular arse factory rims....

perhaps... but that fricker is paid for, which allows me to throw more money at student loans and mortgage....

and at least my dick works without assistance, which is evidently more than you can claim...

It's about the cost of mounting and balances true. Should be less than $100 to do it.

If you can afford an Audi, you don't need to know the price.
