Default AZEV Wheels for the SC430 - Will they work with the Tire Pressure Sensors?

After months of looking I have finally decided on the AZEV Type M Wheel for my 2005 SC430. What I don't seem to be able to find out is whether the Tire Pressure Sensor (TPS) will fit on the wheel. Every tire store I talk to gives me a different answer. Is there different methods of mounting the sensor? based on what I have seen it is part of the valve stem and cannot be relocated. What constitutes TPS compatability with a Wheel ? I notice most wheels have an angled shoulder where the valve stem enters, Does it need a sharp (90 degree) shoulder to rest against? or is it OK if it lays out at an angle not fully supported? This is getting very frustrating finding wheels I like. Every time I think I found something I like I find out it won't accomodate the sensor or I get conflicting answers. Any help anyone can give me would help.
