If you want to test the pipe fix and report back, that's great. But I didn't think it was worth the cost to remove them and then reinstall them in the future just for a stupid light.
Either way my TPMS sensors are coming out of the factory wheels and if the pipe bomb doesn't work, I'll drop them in whatever summer rims I get.
