Valve Stems on TPMS?
 

clearing.

I thought, based on what my (removed) TPMS sensors look like from my 09, that the valve stem is connected to the TPMS sensor in such a way that it makes it nearly impossible to replace just the valve stem. I gave up my TPMS because I didn't want the shiny silver colored OEM valve stems with my matte bronze wheels, which came with beautiful anodized black valve stems.

Correct, you cannot replace the stem but can rebuild the valving. You might be able to get away with the sleeves depending on sizing.

If anything, remove the nut/sleeve and paint/powder coat them.

When u get Ur new tires and rims ask for the service pack for your tpms sensor in advance and send them to be powder coated so when they do Ur tires they can install them all at once I wouldn't want to take them out with the tires or the senser will probably fall into the tires. I've replaced more than a few of them sensors at the shop I work at

Opps saw Ur getting new sensors! Be really easy then! Nvr mnd the service pack that's the rebuild kit for Ur original sensors! My bad:p
