Programmable TPMS Sensors
Okay... so a (small) wrench was thrown into my quest for new wheels and winter tires. Seems like the seller is keeping the TPMS sensors and I have to get new ones. So, instead of buying standard TPMS sensors I figured it'd be easier just to buy programmable ones and not deal with resetting the car every time I swap.
Does anyone have any experience with programmable sensors for 2013+ LS 460 wheels? Seems like the pre-2013 models may be different.

Don't you already own your own set of TPMS for your current wheels? Not sure I would let that 'obstacle' throw a wrench in your transaction.
From what I've seen/done, typically sellers (myself included) always keep their own TPMS because buyers have TPMS already equipped with their vehicles.

I don't think it's a big deal. Most tire shops will do it for you for free I think.
There's also a device that will allow you to program them yourself and might be a worthwhile investment if you change your tires a lot. I think it's a simple device that allows the tire to quickly communicate with the car.
