Rims

Ok, I'm really new to the technological stuff on vehicles these days...I'm used to playing with older Civics and Preludes and Supra's and stuff...

Anyway, with aftermarket rims, will that affect my tire pressure sensors or does the Mini even come with a Tire Pressure sensor? I have a button that is a low tire pressure indicator button, but when I changed out the tires on my Mini, I didn't see a sensor like the ones that are mounted to the rims on Jeeps and stuff.

TPS just measures the circumference of the wheel. When one is a mis-match it will trigger the light.

Just copy and paste parts off of other cars to match yours. It worked for me .
