advice anyone?

I plan buying new sensors for the new wheels. The stock wheels will be my winter setup (buying snow tires of course) and the new wheels for the summer so Id like to have sensors in both sets.

My winter aftermarket rims has TPMS. They are $360 from Tirerack. As per Tirerack, they only sell OEM TPMS sensors for 370Z. (if you do decide to get them, please use the tirerack link from my sig. It helps the forum)

If I didn't have the TPMS, I would have no way of knowing about the leak. I'd probably wake up with a flat after few days and be late to work/meeting/important task. My
