Question Mickey Thompson wheels and TPMS

So Im looking at getting the Mickey Thopmson Classic II's or the imitation bead lock rims in a 16"x8" and I am wondering if the TPMS from the factory steelies will work with these wheels. Does anyone know? Local tire shops, and the Dealer, doesn't know. I have gone with the Bilstein 5100's set at 2" with a 1 inch diff drop. Im planning on going up to a 265/75/16 and want the tires to set at the edge of the fender, anyone have this setup yet? What backspacing do I need for this look as I want to order wheels soon as the steelies are ugly

. I already looked and asked several members, but still need some help. Thanks!

By the way was planning on going bigger but need the gas milage as its a daily driver!

TPMS from steel wheels will not work on alloy wheels. They have a different angle and will not fit. But, they supposedly will work on other steel wheels.
