Fabricate a PVC tube with the TPMS sensor on it and a valve stem. Inflate to required pressure. Throw these in the trunk with the spare. Change tires all you want. TPMS reads the proper pressure.
I did this on my Tundra, but the word is these sensors require wheel rotation to continue broadcasting.
