Do I need to buy new TPMS for my replica rims?

I bought the 214's for my 2007 X5 and I didn't see anyone say that you needed to buy it (I could of missed it). My rims and tires came in today and I plan on going to NTB to have them mounted.

TIA

Yes you need new TPMS if you would like the system to still work.

Is this something I can pick up at my local BMW dealership?

Does anyone know the TPMS size for the replica 214 Y-spoke rim? I went to autozone and there were 3 or 4 different sizes and weren't sure which one I needed. I called my local BMW dealership and they weren't much help, said that they can only give me the size of my current rims which are the 19''. I called a few other places and they weren't much help at all.

They're about $20 a piece compared to $80 a piece at the dealership.

I don't want to swap out the one's from my 19'' now because I want to use them for the winter.

TIA
