Is it possible to remove the TPMS from the stock wheels and use them on most aftermarket wheels? Or is it preferable to keep the stock ones with the stock wheels in order to sell them, and buy new ones for the new wheels? I'd rather not spend the extra $ if I don't need to...

So best to transfer the existing TPMS to the new wheels and sell stock wheels without TPMS?
I think I misunderstood. It's looking like it's cheaper and easier to buy new TPMS from Tire Rack and have them install them and do M&B - resulting in a simple swap-the-wheels setup I can do myself - than to have a local installer remove the old TPMS and install them, then have to M&B both sets of tires. Am I understanding that correctly?
Sorry for the newb questions; I've never dealt with TPMS before and I don't want to screw it up!

Yeah...
If you buy a set from TR, have them include it. Otherwise you have all sorts of mounting/dismouting/remounting headaches.
You can buy EBay sensors for a lot less than what TR charges, but if you figure local M&B vs for free by them, you'll come out ahead with their sensors included in the deal.

Thank you, sir! You advice is much appreciated.

My stock ones were transferred to the new wheels. No issues.
