wheel and tire help!

i have a 2009 335 coupe with the sport package (the 18" 189 wheels) and i was wondering... if i purchase 4 18" staggered black csl wheels would i be able to transfer the tire pressure sensors and the runflat tires to the new wheels without much of a problem? or are those sensors permanently on the 189's? sorry this is such a noob question but i have no clue about these things..

anyone?

TPMS yes.

Not sure if the stock 18" RFTS will fit the aftermarket ones.

thanks.. does anyone know if the stock run flats would fit the 18 inch staggered CSL rims from velocity motorsports (i think thats the company)?

Your stock tire sizes are 225 front and 255 rear, so yes, they would fit our VB3 wheels. However, rfts are very stiff, so please make the tire shop you go to is experienced with dismounting and mounting rft's in order to prevent damaging you new wheels.

^ like he said, but you'll probably be happier without the run-flats.
