Hey whats going on guys?

I ordered my 20x9 Fuel hostage rims -12 offset in black. They came in and look great. The wifey surprised me with a Leveling kit for xmas (wanted the bilsteins but WTH). I'm going to be ordering my tires tomm 295 60 20 nitto trail grapplers. What should I do about the TPMS?

Link to a site that has a good price compared to what local shops are wanting.(its the first 2 on the page) http://www.oewheelsllc.com/Home_3?search=ram+1500

What do you guys think?

Also my price I'm getting for the Nittos including mounted and balanced is 1613 after tax. Does that seem high?

Will be posting pics when its all done. Thanks again guys!!

Seems a bit high but its hard to say. I bought a set of factory take-offs off of Ebay for around ~$80 shipped to Canada. They've been sitting for a year waiting on a new set of wheels so I haven't tested them out yet so take that price with a grain of salt. LOL

Thanks for the info guys. I found a company on Ebay that sells OEM TPMS sensors for 90 shipped. Said shoot its worth a try so I bought those. Should be here Friday (free expedited shipping) and I also ordered the tires today. Went to a local shop paid $1597 for all 4 Trail grapplers 295-60R20 shipped mounted, balanced and installed on the truck. Also took care of putting the TPMS sensors in.

Tires should be here on Monday or Tuesday. Should be installing my leveling kit on Sunday so Hopefully by Wed. everything should be on and installed.

After getting the leveling kit in and dropping the truck off to get the alignment done the truck was there from 1130 am and was there all day. End of the day the shop calls and tells me that they are having issues getting the right front tire aligned. They said its still pulling and they've tried to adjust it numerous times.

Has anyone had this issue? Im still on the factory 20 in rims and tires. The rims and tires are being mounted and balanced tomm afternoon.

Wanted to post an update. The tires finally came in. They are being mounted today to the new rims and will be on the truck this afternoon. FINALLY!!! Wait has been killing me.

Going in again for another shot at the alignment free of charge and if they happen to not have any luck, I'm going to let dodge take a stab at it.

Those tires ARE badass! I wish that Kal Tire didn't have exclusive rights to selling those tires in Canada as they want to rape me on the price to buy a set. I might have to go with the Toyo MT's instead.

Damn 1600 for just tires thought 2100 for tires rims and tps was bad lol
After getting everything and paying all the money I wish I liked the look of a lower style truck better then raised and big tires. Lol, lower trucks with smaller tires def are better on gas.
