Default Winter/Summer Tire setups. What do you folks do about the TPMS?
So I put winter tires on my stock rims at the beginning of the season and they left the TPMS on. I did not even think about asking them to take the sensors out. Anyway, I purchases a set of summer rims and tires over the winter and it is about time to put them on.

Those of you with seasonal setups what to you do about the TPMS? Can I buy a second set of sensors and somehow pair the sensors with the car when I swap wheels?

Thanks for the help.

I bought a complete set last year for $180 for the winter wheels.

Cheapest place I found for the sensors was TireRack.com. Through the setup menu in the car it's pretty easy to switch to the new sensors.
