Default Not using TPMS for 3/4 months?

Im about to put on my winter tire set up. Its already january and im only going to need to run these til april. So im not going to bother buying new tpms or taking the old ones off my summer set up. Will I have any problems besides the light being lit up constantly on the dash?

Light will be on, nothing else. Once you put your other wheels back on, light will go off.

You'll be fine, minus the annoying symbols on the gauges

Be careful, I hear that your can blow your car up without having the TPMS's installed. JK, they are invented for one simple purpose, to notify you that you are low on air i your tires. Period.
