I’m looking to buy a set of oem 220m wheels and they have tires on them. Seller doesn’t know what year tpms are in them if they are pre lci or not. Is there a way to tell from the valve stem externally? Anyone have pics of each from outside?

Thanks!

Unfortunately, the TPMS sensors are not visible from the outside. The metal valve stem is identical.

The only way to tell is checking the car it came from and if the production date of the car is prior to 09/2009 or if it is newer.

Thank you so much! Very helpful info but unfortunately doesn't help me determine which are on a set that the seller doesn't know. I'll factor that into my offer.

No problem!

Tirerack sells the 09/2009+ TPMS for $58 each.
