from what i understand, they work with all of them. the hole for the valve stem is in the barrel of the rim. it's just tricky trying to stretch the tire over the tpms the way it's mounted. also you might bust the tpms if you hit a pot hole where the tpms is located or if you experience a blow out or total air pressure loss.

TPMS will NOT work on the 3-piece versions but WILL work on the 2-piece versions from my understanding.

oh yeah that's what i heard also. but then i also remember somebody here having the 3pc version and utilizing the tpms. your best bet is to get the 2pc... they look the same anyways.

Yeah I understand what you are saying. I am having the same concerns too. I want to go with the same set-up.
