TPS ERROR from 16's to 18's

Why is it when I replaced my "stock" 325i wheels with TPS's with "stock" 18" 162's with TPS's that I get an flat tire error code???

I see you have an 06' E90 that means you do not have a TPMS so a lack of TPMS sensors is not the problem. The other solution would have to be resetting the FTM, preferably after you've made final adjustments to your air pressures.

whenever you change your wheels/tires, you have to reset the system.
