BBS wheels with OEM TPMS inquiry!

Has anybody swapped the OEM '10/'11 ZCP TPMS's onto their BBS LM's (..19's or 20's)? I'm trying to determine if the OEM Beru sensors will work without any modifications. Some places are saying that no additional modifications/adapters are needed, and other places are stating the exact opposite. Any feedback?

OEM TPMS should work fine... I've never heard otherwise...then again, i have 08/09 TPMS.

Did you mount your 08/09 TPMS to BBS LM's?

Chris--is that a little pic of the LMs mounted on your M3 under your signature? How are they? Post more pics!

Im going through the same situation as you. I just got Lm's also. I was told i could run the the tpms from my oem wheels but im just going to buy the extra set so i could swap wheels easily on the fly. One thing i did find out was the valve stems that came with the bbs wheels in the box do not work with tpms, i was told by bbs to order extended valve stems which should be here today.

What size/width LM's did you purchase? Also, which sponsor did you order the extended valve stems from?

Sorry...tpms came mounted already. Not sure if they had special stems from bbs or not.

Jason, it is! Love them!! I'll be posting more soon.

I'm using OEM TPMS with my LMs. I did have to order some special BBS valve stems though.

Thanks bro. Care to shoot me some info about where you ordered them from?

Bringing an old thread back up. What size valve stems did you get for the LMs to use with the TPMS system? I recently got the HUF TPMS from FCP euro but the valve stems are too short for the LM valve stem holes and the existing hardware are too rusted to come off the dead sensors.

I’ve used the Apex Wheels valve stems. They offer them in three colors - silver, black and dark gray.
