Does anyone know if the TPMS stems for the 18" 4runner LTD wheels are compatible with the GX's monitoring? i.e. are they frequency compatible.

I guess the question really applies to anyone who has put new wheels on with new TPMS stems.

Thanks,
Bob

I bought a set of 4runner limited wheels for my 2008 from the local toyota dealer.

I then bought a set of lexus sensors from an online dealer, and tires from the tire-rack.

I installed the sensors onto the wheels myself and had a local tire shop mount the tires.

Important step: be sure to record the serial numbers of the stems for the lexus dealer -- they need to program the vehicle for the new sensors.

I had the dealer "code" the truck to the new sensors at a scheduled service, and everything's been fine since.

I'm not positive that lexus sensors are the same as toyota sensors, but I'd be really surprised if they weren't.

I have a set of TPMS for sale along with wheels and tires from my 08 GX470.
Let me know if you have any interest.

Thanks Scott for the reply and information. I ordered my 18" 4runner wheels last week. I also ordered a set of compatible sensors from tirerack they had as "take-offs" from a wheel swap and saved a considerable amount of cash.

Hopefully will get the wheels this week and tires mounted and balanced next week
