Default HELP: Volk GT-V's and TPMS

So I've got Volk GT-V's, on a MY08 with TPMS.

I've got a TPMS light on and it does not accept the OEM TPMS sensor.

The reason being the location of the valve stem.

The OEM TPMS sensor and valve assembly exit the wheel on the face of the rim.


OEM sensor:


The Volk GT-V's Valve stem is a 90 degree "L"

that exits from the barrel of the Rim so Re-using the OEM sensor is impossible.

The image above is actually a valve stem that's made to go with an aftermarket TPMS sensor. (I don't know which one)


Has anyone had any luck getting TPMS sensors that work with Volk GT series wheels?
