^Or he could just post a picture of the valve stem. You can usually tell by looking at it whether it's the valve stem from the TPMS or a generic valve stem.

Thanks for the valve stem idea. I didn't know they are different for tires that have the sensors.
I will check tonight when I get home and let you know.

take a look at your valve stem on the new rims, and compare it to the old rim. Different? No = you have tpms, light will not come on.

 

Hi, again:
Well, the valve stems on my winter tires look like old-fashioned regular valve stems, which tells me there are no sensors. Still no TPMS warning light. I have now driven about 100 miles and started the car about 20 times.

What about simply calling the dealer just to ask about it.

 

BounceNY (#20):
I bought the tires and rims on-line and had them installed by a dealer. When I ordered them, I specified that I didn't want the TPMS sensors. The dealer is storing my summer tires, so I don't have the TPMS sensors from the summer tires with me.
