2012 FX35 LE
I want to buy some OEM 20" wheels and I personally like the look of the 2009-2011 OEM 20" wheels better than the updated 2012+ OEM 20" wheels. Therefore, are two styles identical in regards to fitment on my 2012 FX35 and are the original TPMS sensors the same/compatible?

More simply, can I purchase some used 2009 OEM 20" wheels with original TPMS and mount them directly to my 2012 FX35 with no problems?

Thanks.
 
Yes but youll have to reprogram the ids to your vehicle. I believe they changed the tpms sensors in 2015.
 
Just as Edwin said. Definitely need to program the tpms into your car so it can be recognized.
 
Thanks for the help guys. I'm tired of the limited options in my 21" stock tire size, I look forward to getting back to the 20" options like I had on my 2007 FX35 sport package.

If I use an OEM 20" wheel with the stock specified tire size, will it affect anything like my speedometer compared to my stock 21" setup?
 
It shoudnt. The stock 20's have bigger tires & the 21's are lower profile wich would be almost the same diameter in whole if not the same. By the way if you cant reprogram the sensors. Theres this new thing out thats becoming quite popular called clonable tpms sensors. Slightly cheaper. You can clone your original tpms sensor id's to them so if you were ever to keep swapping between 21's & 20's you would never need to reprogram again.
 
I see youre in KY. I'm in TN, any interest in getting rid of your old wheels?

I was thinking I would keep the 21's for summer tires (because I do love the look of them on my limited edition) and use the 20's for winter tires, but if finding a nice set of 20's proves to be extremely costly then I may sell the 21's... I will let you know if I do decide to sell them.
