what does that have to do with the TPMS as long as the correct amount of air is in the tires it really shouldn't matter what size the tires are

Mate, I think that's the jumping off point for the thread; because he didn't have the correct amt. of air, the low tyre light was on... so he actually looked at his tyres to see what the problem was... and under close inspection discovered he had different sizes front to back.

Klinton, put those 205/40's on craigslist and try to recover a bit of cash.
