TPMS replacement?

Well looks like 2 of my original tires needs to be replaced. 30k miles on the tpms.

Usually when you get new tires you change the stems but i believe the tpms have the stems built in them? What is Mazda's recommendation when changing the tires? Reuse for a few more miles or replace. Don't want to have premature failure when driving at high speed at the track when I get to that again.

I'm guessing discount tire will just reuse them right?

you'll reuse the TPMS but they recommend a rebuild kit that has new gaskets and stems.
