TPMS question (buying extra set, will car recognize 2nd set?)

doing 20" VSXX as my new wheels , going to put the TPMS in that set using bands... etc etc..


then im going to take the tires from my oem 19's and put some 19" TE37's or 3 piece meisters (unsure yet)... and i wanted to have TPMS on these as well so when i swap em out i still get to check pressure.

question now is.. if i bought a 2nd set of TPMS and mounted them in the second set of wheels.. will the car recognize them.. or does each set of TPMS have its own frequency for each car.

considering how many cars they make and etc i would say that maybe each corner has a certain frequency but each car has the same FQ?


thank you in advance for the help.. and while im at it post which you think would be hotter as temp wheels

A 19x9.5+12 19x10.5+12 Gold or Mag blue Te37
B 19x9.5+10 (109mm) 19x10.5+10 (121mm) Not sure on color Meister S1 3piece

I'm pretty sure you will need to get them matched to the car at the dealership.

Yes you will have to get the sensors paired with the car. I believe when you change back to your old ones you will have to go through it again.
That's why I never bothered with them in my summer wheel set. I don't want the hassle of setting them up each spring and fall.
