Wheel fitment plus flat tire sensor issues.

Hi guys.

I just installed my 06 MR bbs on my girl's 09 lancer. I have a 255/40/17 star spec dirreza's on them. It looks good but i got two problems. first is that it rubs a little on the rear. This is not much of on issue because i drove the car through some corners line my girl never will. I can just roll them slightly and this will be fixed. My next issue is that the flat tire sensor come on. My bbs dont have the sensors mounted on them. How can i disable that through the computere setting or is there something i can do or do i just remount the tires with the sensons. Is that the only way out. I would appreciate some input.

thanks
George


p.s.
I can post some pics later on.

I would remont the tires with the sensors in them personally. they made the sensors for a reason. if you dont it wont be a problem you will just have that light on.

Not sure of any way to disable the light on the dash. Will have to live with the light or put the sensors back in.
