Ok, so I put the summer tyres on Phevy. These are the OEM Toyo tyres on new Fast FC05 rims.

The dealer wanted $300 for a set of 4 TPMS, when they had the winter tyre sale, and wanted now $470 for the set. :(
So I looked online and found a compatible set of TPMS for $216 (4 of Oro-Tek OTI-001B TPMSensor).
The local tyre guy could not program them for the PHEV, and I had to get in contact with the distributor to figure out what the scoop was.
Only the Mitsubishi dealer can program the sensor and my dealer was reluctant to do so. (Rather sell me the OEM's) :x
So I confronted them with just swap my winter tyres for the summer ones with a B service. (no charge)
Then I told them to program the sensors for the 2nd sensor slot and they did it for $67.
In the end the TMPS cost $283 (incl HST). A savings of $56. :lol:

Now let's see how long the Toyo's last, so I can upgrade the rubber. :cool:
