Tpms sensors nessesary in winter wheels?
So I'm planning on buying my winter wheels and tires this weekend as its a tax free weekend in mass, and I was wondering do most people actually get these sensors installed just for their winter wheels? If I brought my car to the dealer for regular maintenance would they make a fuss about it or do they really not care? I don't mind driving with the light on if it's just for the ~3 months I have them on. I figure I'll probably be fine as long as I check my tire pressure regularly.

i would think my tire pressure especially in winter months would be important!
(ive never driven in snow, fu texas!) |
just leave it off. the car can only program one set so if you get new tpms installed you will have to get that programmed, then re-program back to your summer wheel set when spring comes. you might be okay with that, i donno..but i just stopped using tpms in my wheels completely as it's a pita.

I don't use TPMS sensors in my winter set. I got used the light on last winter, but then again it never bothered me.

Right on guys, thanks. I ordered my blizzaks today, they should be here by monday after next. Funny thing..when I ordered them online from tirerack, I had a typo in my zipcode for the shipping address and placed the order...got a call and the guy was like "You do know these are winter tires?" I'm like "yeaaa..." He's like well I was just supprised you would get them being in your part of the country in Arkansas.. I'm like what? I live in Mass! He's like oh let's just fix that, looks like you had a type in your zipcode. lol...anyways, he was very nice and helpful.

Will not having tpms sensors void my warrenty or cause any trouble at the dealership if I get my car serviced?
