my cheap side is taking over. I bought 4 interceptor wheels for winter. if I don't get tpms sensors, will the light stay on all the time, or will it go out after a few minutes, like the seat belt warning for people that don't wear their seat belt?

I belive it will stay on... Any up to date tire shop should be able to transfer your current TPMS and reset them to work properly.

The last time I had to change a dented wheel the shop charged me almost $50 to put the new band strap for the tpms on. If it's just a winter set I would live with the light and check the pressure regularly .

Probably not for salted roads, but there's this cheapo solution:

Install with lots of dieletric grease, maybe?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
