Update:
Unfortunately, I had to have the TPMS sensors removed today and regular valve stems installed instead. I mentioned this before, but the valve stem holes on these rims are just slightly larger than the stock rim valve stem holes, so the TPMS sensor stems don't quite seat. My shop guys messed with them quite a bit but couldn't get them to stay without developing slow leaks. So today we solved the problem by installing the stems the wheels came with, and I lose my TPMS. Guess I just need to cover the dash light like most others with aftermarket wheels have done.
Ah well... I still love the wheels.
