Default TPMS from oem 18 to oem 19 inch wheels

Questions about the tpms. I have a luxury model gs and thinking about going with 19 f sport. The 19 inch f sport wheels does not have the tpms with the sale. My question is, can I use the tpms that are on my car? Or do I have to purchase a new set?

Just swap it and you good to go. Make sure the tire shop don't over torque it or the sensor will get damage.

You can put your luxury wheels on eBay to recoup for the F-sport wheels.

You can do it, just remember to get the TPMS service kit for each sensor it should include grommet, hex ferrell, valve core, crush washer and cap. I'm sure the tire servicing shop that does the swap will have these available. These are usually 7-12 dollars each, nevermind they're less than .12 cents to make.

As long as they have a good 50/50 tire changer that can break the bead on the 18" & 19" rims and keep the tire out of the way during the swap...the tire actually may not need to be dismounted from the rim... IF they know what they are doing. Plus if they dismount the tire completely you run the risk of having the rim scratched from the machine or tools used. Dealers know this. Independent tire shops may or may not.
