5zigen wheels

I'm considering buying a set. Wondering if anyone knows if our OEM TPMS sensors fit 5zigens. I'm looking at either the Heidfeld Mesh or FN01R-C.

It didnt fit in my set of FN01R-C.
Maybe someone somewhere sell a kit to fit the TPMS with the bigger opening, I just didnt bother to look for them

Thanks for the reply. Just about covers it. Are Mitsu dealers able to program aftermarket sensors?

any tire shop with the equipment can reprogram aftermarket sensors.

I had asked a couple shops if they'd be able to program sensors to my car but they both said it would have to be done by Mitsu. Should I be looking harder?

If you need tpms sensors that dont need to go to the dealer everytime you switch wheels check out the thread in my signature. I can help you.

My understanding of it was that my car can only have 5 sensors programmed to the ECU (4 regs + 1 spare) and synchronizing each sensor to the car's memory has to be done at a dealer. Are you able to program 4 sensors specific to my vehicle without being at my vehicle? Or are you saying that my car reads whatever TPMS on the wheels that is programmed for Mitsubishi?

correct - your car's ECU can only handle 4 sensors - I am not sure the spare has one. The sensors I sell clone your sensors exactly. The car doesn't realize that you swapped wheels out. I do need the codes that are on your sensors - any tire shop can read them. Once I have them I can burn a set with the exact codes on them.

You could go this route as well



My sensors will fit in this type of setup. If you need bands i can get them for you as well.
