Wasn't for me - stock 2012 rims. I thought Discount wouldn't touch beadlocks.

Alot of National tire chains wont touch beadlocks but some are private owned and its up to individual franchisees to decide if they want to or not. My point is if someone just says "oh *** only charged me $55 for TPMS" its giving false information because it doesnt apply to beadlocks.

For what its worth, we charge $392 to install 4 TPMS in beadlock wheels. Basically 1 hour labor per wheel.

I got all 4 sensors installed with tire replacement in all 4 tires for $390 at discount tire. It’s $60 a sensor plus install but they waived install because I bought tire protection.

Are these for actual beadlock wheels, or for the "beadlock" upgrade wheels (which are only beadlock *CAPABLE*)? There seems to be a lot of confusion about the Ford OEM beadlock wheels...

A real beadlock is absolutely a completely different animal all together. I'm just talking about the stock "beadlock" from Ford. That's why I write it as such. I looked and I paid 19.99(including shipping) for an OEM sensor. It appears they can be cheaper if you buy a set of 4. They are very easy to install you just have to be able to get the tire off/on(no, I am not including using a ratchet strap and starter fluid to set the bead). Since it was my spare and I was planning to put it in the rotation of tires is the only reason I had it balanced, otherwise it wouldn't have costs as much. 40 for everything and I am in Northern CA(bay area) which is notoriously expensive for everything.

I just bought one OEM sensor to go in my spare and it was about 20 bucks and that includes shipping. I then had it put in my spare and it was another $20. So $40 for the whole process. 2018 with factory "beadlock" wheels. They also balanced my spare. Local tire shop.
That was my experience...already ran the spare with new sensor from Amazon and works great!

When people say beadlock they are referring to the beadlock capable stock rims. Very few (if anyone really) has converted them to actual beadlocks. Even people playing in the sand are going down under 20 psi without real beadlocks.
