2015 vs 2007 tpms

[2007tahoe]

I have a 07 tahoe with the screw on tpms sensors not the rubber ones. I installed a set of 2015 ltz take off wheels witch have the rubber tpms sensors and the next day it flagged the tpms because i had not relearned the new sensors. I tried to relearn them and the truck would not except them. I have done it 100 times before when i replaced my old sensors and when i rotate my tires and have never had a problem before. I cannot install the old style sensor on the new will because it will not fit. What do I do now? thanks

Different sensors. Gotta see sensors for your year(s) vehicle. Why won't the old ones fit? What does it hit?

Shouldn't be any reason why the sensor wont fit. Are you talking the factory sensors, or some kind of aftermarket thing? The factory sensor mounts inside the wheel, you have to dismount the tire to swap them.

My original sensor from the 07 wheels have a metal stem. You insert it from the inside and screw it on from the outside, I have replaced them about 2 yrs ago. The new wheels have the sensor with the rubber stem where you just pull it from the inside like a regular stem. I haven't tried to swap them out yet but I was just assuming they were not interchangeable since they mount different. To answer question above all is oem equipment, no aftermarket.

I moved it. You can swap metal ones with rubber. I actually have 3 metal and 1 rubber one on my 07... Kinda kills me with my OCD.

Might have to get a handheld to program them. Mine worked on my 08 with the regular relern

Thanks for the info. The guy who purchased my oem 2007 wheels is giving my sensors back. He already had a set.The sensors weren't even 2 yrs old. Took the tahoe to the dealer today and u cannot use 2015 sensors for a 2007. They tried and they wouldn't program
