I've got 09 Cooper with stock 15" rims.
Got a lead on some 16" Bridgespokes.

My question is whether its possible to have tire installer swap the TPMS from the 15s onto the 16s? Anyone done this?

Thank you

 

As far as I know if you are just moving the TPMS from OEM 15" wheels to OEM 16" wheels all you need is a stem rebuild kit.

 

They measure pressure only, the wheel size doesn't matter.

I know this may not pertain to your situation but, if the Bridgespokes are from a 2010 (10/09 build) or newer, then the is a real possibility the TPMS modules will not work with the system in an older model, e.g. a 2009 Clubman. It seems there are at least two and possibly three different in TPMS modules at play in the late model MINIs. I am having MINI OEM 16" wheels installed on my 2009 Clubman (currently with 17" wheels) later this afternoon. To make it work for me, I am have the TPMS modules on my 17" wheels moved to the 16" wheels and plan to offer for sale the TPMS modules from a 11/09 R56. Sorry if this is confusing!

 

Simple swap, no rebuild kit is needed unless a stem is leaking.

 

Did this yesterday 2011 Oem 15 to 2011 Oem 16 swaped TPMS no issues.
Went from R118 5 stars To R119 6 stars no problems.
