Someone with rock warrior experience needs to weigh in on whether the oem tpms will fit.
I bought brand new Denso TPMS sensors from Summit Racing to mount in Rock Warriors on my 2008 and they fit just fine.

I'm running Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx tires in the larger 285/75/17 (34") tire size and they fit great. Removed the mud flaps behind the front tires and have a miniscule rub on the front side of the front tires, but haven't been bothered enough to deal with it yet. I didn't have any interferences with the side steps, but have now removed them to increase ground clearance.

The center caps that came with my wheels were heavily worn. I tried the Ivan Stewart Tundra center caps that have been mentioned elsewhere, but even brand new from the dealer they are old aged and brittle plastic, had two that came with broken tabs from the dealer. Also, they just didn't look right.

Then I ordered a set of the KMC wheel center caps (Product # t174k85-s2) and they are perfect. The KMC branding bothered me at first, but the black coloring blends in and it is hardly noticeable. At around $20 for 4 from an Ebay seller they are great. In the pics below, I only have one mounted and it is on the passenger rear wheel.

This is the best deal going for the needed Lug Nuts that fit these wheels. New OEM Alloy Wheel Locking Lug Nut Set M14 1.5 20 Piece Lock Key McGard 65515 | eBay - https://www.ebay.com/itm/266389408396
In my case, I didn't use the locking nuts, but purchase an additional set of McGard lugs.

Well, I just had another individual not come through on RW wheels. I think I’m done with market place.

Do you think the Heritage wheels are a good option? Looks like RW won’t be in the mix at this point.

I don’t care for the wheel design of the HE, but I know the quality is there.
 
Don't give up on RW's. They are worth it. Just keep your eye's out constantly. I got extremely lucky to find mine 2 days after I got my LX570. They compliment my new KO3's very well......

yeah... most are a bit used.. which is fine for me since I use them as intended and well the rock rings are used for rocks..
I still keep an eye out of them even though I have 2 sets already, I'd buy a 3rd..

both of my sets were off marketplace.. amazingly.
