Advan GT Beyond + TPMS

[miku_mkv]

Hello, I'm looking for anyone that has Advan GT Beyond and has fitted TPMS.

Did you encounter any issues installing the OEM TPMS?

A shop that I went to didn't want to install the TPMS as it was touching/flexing. And he was concerned that the plastic of the TPMS could break. He mentioned that it is just slightly touching/flexing.

Is the tyre shop just being too cautious?

Thanks for the help!

Sorry slightly unrelated to your post but what spec Advan GT Beyond do you have? Any more photos?

Front - 19x9.5+25 255/35/19
Rear -19x11+35 295/30/19


Stock suspension. The tyres currently have quite a bit of life left so I'll leave it for now. I'll eventually change to 275/35/19 and 295/35/19 or 305/30/19.

I'll create a thread later on once I've given the car another clean

I have the 19x9.5/19x10.5 Advan GT Beyonds and I fitted the OEM TPMS just fine, the adhesive part on the back of the TPMS that's supposed to sit on the inner barrel didn't fit fully flush, but it did partially seat, and there was not any stress on the plastic or valve stem itself.

I didn't take any photos but, nothing during the install made me go "Sheesh, that's probably gonna break"

It's been fine for 2 years/12k km or so now.

Thank you for sharing your experience!

I'm now going to another shop to have a secondary attempt at the TPMS. I messaged quite a few people and while they didn't have any stories about the install, all of them do have the OEM TPMS sensors installed in their Advan GT Beyonds.

Beautiful fitment! What springs/coilovers are you running?

Just running Eibach US Springs. I might switch to Ohlins at some point but I've been happy with the Eibach springs thus far.

Yeah, for the short term I'll run the HKS HAS to dial in the fitment.

I don't do enough serious track work to consider coilovers right now.

There was a person selling some used KW V3 with the delete plug for $3000 AUD used. If there was a time to get a great deal, that would've been the time.
