Default Suggestions for TPMS Strapping/Bonding

Hi All,

I went to get my wheels (Work Euroline XRs) mounted today at my friend's shop and he told me that due to the placement of the mounting holes, I would have to secure the TPMS down using some type of wheel straps. He showed me the reason and I agree with him that this was the best way so I won't have those warning lights popping up on my dash.

Anyways, I was looking through different websites and didn't find any info on where I can purchase these straps. Does any of you have any suggestions on where I can purchase these wheel straps from? Can I just buy any kind of stainless steel strap from someplace like Home Depot or does it need to be specifically for the purpose of TPMS strapping?

Thanks,

Curtis

i did a little bit of reading and i have read that some people drill new holes in the rims for the tpms. this is the route im going to use if the mouting doesnt line up. not an answer to your questions but a different way of solving the problem.

Wouldn't that reduce the structural integrity of the wheels?

I'm definitely looking towards the straps instead.
