FL5 forged wheels

[thui001]

I am thinking about the idea to purchasing a FL5 forged wheels. but the only concern i have is the TMPS sensor since the valve stem is 90 degree on the FL5 wheels.
Does anyone know any other way to apply the TMPS sensor; is there a TMPS band adaptor that this can be used? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

In a thread somewhere on the forum, someone just "taped" the TPMS inside the rim and that was working.

It sounds like his issue is that the valve seats on the inside face rather than outside face, so there's a 70 degree variance to how the inside of the valve sits. A tpms sensor would typically poke towards the inside if the valve isn't adjustable in this case.

So yeah, agreed, replace the valves, and get ones that have an adjustable range for how the tpms angle sits.

Do the forged wheels have the same odd 90 degree valve stem?
Photo below dosent seem like it.

Replace the valve stems when they mount and balance the tires. I’m running the forged FL5 wheels with PS4 along with 15mm and 20mm spacers. Love the fitment and look.

Looks amazing. I had placed the order this morning, and can't wait to install them on my car. Thank you again.

Are you lowered? Or is that the wheel filling it out?

Whats the spec on these wheels? Same as stock 19x9.5 +60?

I’m lowered on Eibach springs with 15/20mm bonoss spaces.

Thinking about the installing bonoss spacer as well. When purchasing the Bonoss spacer online, can I still purchase the same one for the type S which is also compatible with this FL forged wheel?

Thank you.

Yes! If the rims fit the car, then they have to have the same bolt pattern as our stock wheels. Those rims are same specs as FL5/DE5 stock rims.
