i'm about to buy a set of winter rims/ tires. i've read that if i don't get the tpms sensors my warning light will come on. if i go that route and ignore it all winter, will it automatically go back off in the spring when i put the oem wheels/ tires back on? thanks.

 

Yes it will.

 

great! thanks. think i'll save myself the $265 and go without on the snows.

 

The light is not overly intrusive either; even at night.

 

Not sure what year you have, but you can get aftermarket modules fairly cheap. I bought some Orange TPMS modules off Amazon for my '09 for $140 or so.

 

thanks for the tip. i have an 09 as well (sport coupe). thinking i'll go without this year and see how it is. maybe next winter i'll take it in and have them install sensors if it bugs me too much.

 

Keep in mind to install sensors you'd have to pay for dismounting and remounting of the tires. I'd go ahead and do it now if you're debating it.

I also went with aftermarket and saved a lot of coin. They work great. I used the ITM brand.
