TPMS part number for SS
Hi, I did a quick search, but did not see anything that specifically addresses the SS wheel. I may be overthinking this, but isn't the TPMS for the SS wheel different than the standard wheel?
If so, what is the part number?

According to this AC Delco listing, all HP metal stormed are now rubber stemmed , however scroll down in the listing and they do show the metal stems for the aluminum wheel SS model

Thanks Donbrew. Just so I understand, if I order the TPMS do I also get a new valve stem? The reason I ask is the the stem on the SS wheel is not just the black rubber stem, it is a silver metal stem. That's why I thought it might be a different part number...

You can usually interchange metal and rubber stems.

The important part of the TPM is 315 MHz radio freq.

Thank you both, I missed old Blues post as I was typing to Donbrew at the same time....
looks like they are interchangable. My dealer is offering the TPMS that is supposed to work on all 08 HHRs (not model specific) for about $45/ea. So I will just order them there.

These are what I bought when the originals began failing on my SS. I also bought a set for my winter wheels:
Dorman TPMS Sensors 974-009 - Free Shipping on Orders Over $99 at Summit Racing
$33.97 is a really good price and they've worked flawlessly.

That is a really good savings over dealer price. How long have you had them? Reviews weren't very good, and one customer CLAIMS that the batteries died in all 4 sensors within a year. I know how reviews go though... People rarely post reviews when things work like they should.... But are quick to exaggerate when something goes wrong.
