i think the tps are working fine on his wheels. he didn't get anything from iforged i believe, he got the metal straps from somewhere else and just tied them down (glued too?)

I just did a more thorough search & found out he's using the bands/straps from HRE ($100/set). I'd like to hear how's it holding up to this point & how he installed them hopefully w/some pics.

WOW! Tony is stepping it up. Way to go! I love those multi-spoke rims. For some reason, they just look more classier on "white" colored cars than any other color. Of course, I've haven't see that style rim on any other color so I can't change my mind yet.

great job.

LOL, I tried to email you but for some reason CL wouldn't let me do it. Anyway, did you do anything else to hold them in place besides the bands such as some type of tape or residue? So you just called HRE & just asked to buy their bands ehh? Did they supply anything else when you got the bands? Any pics w/the bands on & w/the wheels on the car? All of your info has really been helpful. Thx!

its a band with a clip that runs through the band and a hole where the valve stem attaches on to. No extra glue/tape the fit was very very tight unfortunately I dont have any pictures since I was inside paying for my rims when they were mounting them.
