I don't put my Blizzaks on until the temp is fairly consistently below 40 F, so today was the day in Northern WI. Sorry for the delay.
1st is the OEM 18" rim, Next is the Rav4 17" with chrome wheel Skins. Makes for a cheaper set up with higher side walls that make for a great ride without changing the geometry in the least.
Cloned sensors, didn't miss a beat, and no errors with the OEM wheels being stored in fairly close proximity.
If you go with the Rav4 wheels like I did, be sure to get the lug nuts for the Rav4 wheels as they are a little different than the OEM. Same thread and diameter, just a little different retaining flange.

Any competent tire shop should be able to get you a set and program them as well.

I don't need to reprogram the sensors when i swap tires.
Thanks for the info. I usually swap tires but I'm thinking of buying wheels for winter to make things easier.

Which Blizzaks do you use? I ordered the DM-V2 for my 19's. Hoping the ride will still be nice.

Same, DM-V2
The ride is fantastic. Very happy with them. Roads iced up here today and the tires performed perfectly.

Default two sets of TPMS sensors?

Can 2013 RX350 have two sets of TPMS stored or do you require the dealer to sync evertime for summer/winter wheel changes?

Only 1 set, you either have to reprogram them, or an alternative suggestion in this thread, get TPMS sensors for your second set of tires that can be programmed to match your existing TPMS sensors.
