Default Where to get TPMS programmed

I need to get a second set of TPMS programmed and the closest Lexus dealer wanted $220 to program them. I called local Toyota dealers and they were the same price if not a little bit lower.

For those that live on the East Coast (preferably Mid-Atlantic) where is a good alternative to get TPMS programmed?



I searched, but all I could find were West Coast places and American Tire (but I don't have an American Tire near me)

Well I called a local Goodyear and they said that they have the programmer necessary to do it, so I'll give them a shot since I know the owner.

If they can't then I'm in the same situation I was before.

Rizzy, which Lexus dealership did you contact? I know of three in the DC Metro area. You can always lie on the phone and say "Lexus of ____ said they'd do it for $100, but I'd rather take my car to ______ since you guys are closer. Can you match the price?".
