I have an 06 300c that i just barely took delivery of. I ordered my wheels and tires ahead of time and am now learning about the tire pressure monitoring system (arghhh). After a call to
www.tirerack.com and a local dealer. Here's what I was told...
The tire pressure monitors are available to the internet wheel resellers and your local shops. For example,
www.tirerack.com can sell you the rims and tires with the monitors, mounted balanced and ready to go. BUT they may ask you to ask your dealer, based upon your vin, what system your car is using. Apparently, dcx is migrating from one brand to another and there is no clear cut way to tell aside from vin and the dealer system. I also checked with a local tire dealer (Les Schwab) and they also knew how to install and apply these but they needed to know from the dealer which system to get based on vin.
www.buywheelstoday.com was just added as a sponsor so I'd like people to support them. Do they have the tire pressure monitors ready to go??
