Tire pressure sensor

So has anyone with aftermarket wheels found a way to make the tire pressure sensor work? Just looking for some feedback.

we have aftermarket wheels on one of our stock cars. If needed I can find out what we did to do that.

Yeah, that would be much appreciated, as I'm sure that I'm not the only one who wants to know if it's possible to make it work with the big fat 19s that we'll be putting on next week. Any tech info would be super helpful too.

I don't know what the tolerances for pressures are in the computer.. but by changing wheel sizes and different compound tires and all that (especially the soft snow tires) don't you also change your normal tire pressue? In which case, the sensor might be useless anyway, unless you can program the pressure at which the sensors go off and warn you..
