Replacement valve stem caps and TPMS
I found these valve stem caps on Amazon a while ago. Before I order them, will they cause any issues with the TPMS? I've read that the stems have a "shoulder" that regular caps don't fit over.
Or if anyone knows of another set of black caps with the gold bowtie... I wish these weren't plastic, and that they were anti-theft.

As far as I can see, the only "TPMS" specific bit of the cap is an o-ring moisture seal. I guess the old fashioned plastic caps can't seal good enough for some engineer. I just do not know how sealing the cap could possibly have anything to do with TPMS, however since the TPMS is radio, perhaps the metal cap acts as an antenna????
