Default New RC7 wheels arrived! Other parts required?

FedEx delivered gorgeous new Rohana RC7 wheels yesterday. I have hub rings, lugs, wheel lock lugs, and TPMS maintenance kits arriving today or tomorrow. Wheels came with center caps and chrome valve stems. Have I forgotten anything? Will the TPMS sensors fit on the RC7's seamlessly? Will the valve stems that came with the wheels be usable or will the current valve stems on the sensor need to be used? I hope to have all of this on the car in the next 3 days and will post pics upon completion.
Thanks

RC10 was on my short list. Very nice wheels 👌
Gdog, I'd just get new TPMS. They're not that expensive. Get OEM and avoid eBay where fakes are rampant.

keep the sensors on your factory wheels/tires. just in case you need to swap them back for any reason.

Yup that's my reasoning too

Why would I buy new sensors?
