TPMS with Black Valve/Cap

evilb · 03-20-2017, 11:28 AM

Hey All --

Does anyone have a spot to pick up some black valve stems and caps for OEM TPMS sensors? I have some new forged 21's coming and don't want anything silver visible. I called Tire Rack and it ends up being ~$70/ea with the black stem/cap option, but he didn't have any pics or information so I'm not really sure what I'm getting.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Brad

Is it an option to plasti dip those valves on the stock TPMS? That's what I would do.

Arghh... plasti-dip... not dipping anything going on my car. I'm sure some do, but not my thing.

Try hitting up GMP Performance up in Charlotte. I think they have the black valve stems or can get them.

I'm needing the same. Let me know what you find. I see the ones on Apex for our cars in black run around 55 each. Thinking of ordering them.

Yep apex is the place you want to go. I get all my valve stems from them. $10 each, silver, gunmetal, or black. Can't go wrong!

Did you end up buying the TPMS from them also? I haven't been able to find definitive info on if you have to use OEM, or if some aftermarket versions don't have compatibility issues.

They have a bunch of sensors on Amazon for our cars.
