You're not the first one, it's happened in Germany as well.
The best things to do:
1. Always reset the Flat Tire Monitor when correcting tire pressures and changing tires and/or wheels.
2. Change out the transfer case fluid at Inspection II. The cost of a fluid change is, needless to say, much cheaper than replacing the transfer case later on.
I've followed the above two steps, and despite various tire changes and a separate set of winter and summer wheels/tires, the T-case is A-okay on my 2004 with 98k miles. Knock on wood.
