Exclamation HELP: TPMS Problem?

Hi,

I just bought a 2006 Infiniti G35 Coupe from an Infiniti Dealership in Pennsylvania. The car came equipped with 17" black aftermarket wheels. After buying the car, I noticed that the TPMS light would flash whenever the car started and it remains on for my entire drive

I immediately called the dealership and they told me that it was because the wheels were swapped with aftermarket ones and I could take it to my local Infiniti dealership and have the sensors reset.

I went to my local Infiniti dealership in NJ and they said that there are no sensors on the aftermarket wheels so they cannot be reset, hence the reason why the TPMS light remains on.

What should I do? Should I purchase OEM sensor replacements? Should the Infiniti Dealership where I purchased the car cover the cost of the sensors?

Please help
