I have a set of 245/50R18 Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 Run Flat and 18" Sport Edition P5 wheels ready to be installed. I'm just waiting for the weather to stop going from 48F to 75F in a matter of hours.
I got the $45/ea tire pressure sensors, although my car is an SS. My understanding is that they carry a lower speed rating than the more costly sensors. Otherwise, are they the same? Will I end up having issues getting these sensors to sync with the car? I do not anticipate that I need a high speed rating for the winter, so it does not make sense to spend double the price for the mandatory sensor if its only difference is the speed rating.
