X3 Alloy Wheels

DannyX3 · 04-06-2024, 09:07 AM

Hey everyone,

I have a 2012 X3 X-drive. The standard alloys are 17’s and want to buy new 18’s.
How do I know if I have tyre pressure sensors? And if the new alloys do not, will this cause problems?
Thanks in advance.

Decode the VIN.
Alloys don't come with sensors, install new ones.

Not too sure what you mean by decode the vin?
New alloys don’t come with sensors, therefore wondering if my old ones would have.
