I got a sensible set of winter run-flat radials and rims for my new mini (FB marketplace - $150 for all 4, great condition). They don't have TPMS though so I get the triangle.
I've been running round and round on the Internet trying to find a TPMS will fit. ebaymotors gives me lots of choices, but when I choose my vehicle it says "won't fit". I'm not sure what the original part is because the mini OEM store doesn't even make the TPMS searchable in any reasonable way (pages and pages of unrelated/irrelevant results).
Every time I think I've found the right one (F56), I check the fitment, and the date stops at 2019 or 2021 or something and it says won't fit.
Is it that nobody has updated their dates/models and the 2019 TPMS will work? Is it a different frequency? So many matches, but in the end they all disclaim a fit for this vehicle and I can't find reliable info about what it is that would make it fit.
The closest I've come to one that I think will work is this, for a bit of a premium:
www.carid.com
But programmable, to me, makes it seem like I have to also get a programming tool, so I'm dubious.
This is one example of huge compatibility list, including F56 model, but stops at 2020:
Thoughts?
