New TPMS sensors- any brands better than others?

I'm going to put some AS tires on my OEM rims for winter. I don't want to switch the TPMS sensors from my current rims out. I will be buying my tires from my local Discount Tire, but I don't think they sell sensors (although I haven't checked). So...I plan on buying my own sensors and bringing them in when I buy tires. I have no idea what brands I should be looking for or if it even matters. Any suggestions? TIA

Discount tire ordered sensors for mine- although I think they got them from Lexus. $200 for 4
