Beer Box Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I replaced my stock wheels/tires with Motegi black 5-spoke wheels and Kuhmo tires. I ordered them from Tire Rack complete with new TPMS sensors and had my local Ford dealer install them (charged for tire rotation). Could not reset TPMS, but no dash light. Drove it like that for a while, but really wanted TPMS system to work. Service manager worked on it for several hours before determining that reset sequence needed to be done with doors open. WTF? No problems since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problems since. Which Motegi wheels did you get? I only saw 17" ones. If that is the one, how are they on the TC? Is the ride with the Kuhmo tires any quieter or softer? Does having a bigger wheel affect the speedometer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer Box Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 I went with 15" wheels. I'll post pic later today. Kuhmo tires ride a bit rougher and no additional noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
