    Fusion Wheels

    At least it can be done by the owner and at home with no expensive test equipment - Not all cars make it so simple to do I put a new set of wider wheels and tires on one of our electric Mitsubishi's - Would you believe it came with a 145/65R15 on a 4 inch wide wheel on the front?? I bought new TPMS sensors for the new wheels and the guy at the tire store used his $1800 TPMS tool to try to get my car to 'learn' the new sensors after he installed them. Over the period of a week, he tried three different times. Since it never did work, he didn't charge me anything After many e-mails and 6 or 7 phone calls with the company that sold me the sensors on Amazon, I finally got them to research a local shop and send me there to get the car programmed to work with the sensors - It could only be done with a specific brand of equipment, or so they said, so they sent me to a Goodyear shop who said they had that brand. The process should take less than 10 minutes, but it was an hour before I got my car back - They tried the 'correct' equipment several times and then another one they had a couple times and finally accomplished the task with a device that had only been used successfully on one other car. Mitsubishi REALLY wants you to go to the dealer for this . . . . at a half hour labor charge - Usually about $75. Really an expensive headache for those changing to winter wheels/tires and back every year . . . . there goes $150 you shouldn't be forced to spend Take may word for it, relearning sensors on a TC is a piece of cake . . . . comparatively speaking anyway Don

  3. I have a cooler with a fan on my truck. Your main consideration will be how much space you have, and where you will install it.
