I picked up a set of oem beadlock capable wheels with BFG'S but no tpms.
I am going to get the tire shop to put the tpms in on Monday and balance them.

My question is. .. Do I need to remove the beauty rings before they put them on the tire machine to install the tpms? They look like they may be in the way or get scratched...

Is it worth the trouble?

I've had my wheels off 3 times for various reasons. I changed them myself and it is much much easier to remove the ring and then just reinstall it when you are finished. Keeps you from worrying about it getting scratched.

FWIW they should just need to break the front bead to install the TPMS sensors and not remove the entire tire.
