I have an 08 ilverado WT, it has the painted 17x7.5 rims. I'm itching to buy these,

sorry I couldnt link better, Will my factory pressure monitors interchange over? Im planning on reusing my tires since they have 3k on them and im tryin to get by on the cost efective side as school keeps funds low. thanks so much for your input

You (or, more likely the tire shop) should be able to transfer the TPMS' over with no problem.

thanks man, so onto my next thought... I realize the rims won't be under any warranty but will I still be covered on my monitors since they are original to the truck? I dont see why not but Im just wondering.

Since they are stock wheels, I wouldn't mention that you added them. They'll cover them like they came on the truck. Dealers do the swap all the time and the warranty is in effect. They won't know the difference.

Nice wheels but you should check at some of your local Chevy dealers. I know my dealer has three sets in his parts department right now for $250 bucks. It'd save ya $50 dollars and shipping and the hassle.
