TPMS help!

Just purchased a set of the F-Sport forged 19" wheels and I'm having a heck of a time deciding what to do with the TPMS sensors.

My GS is L-certified so I don't want to take out the existing TPMS sensors and install in the new wheels. I want to take the car in stock for servicing.

I was pretty much set on purchasing a set of the Autel MX or MX 1-Sensor and 'cloning' the existing sensor IDs... that is until I contacted the company and they said 2015 GS350 is not supported.

Is my only choice to buy a set of OEM Pacific TPMS sensors and have it uploaded via OBD?

What other brand TPMS sensors work with the 2015 GS350?

At this point I'm about to just run the wheels without TPMS. How annoying is the TPMS warning light? Is it steady amber or does it flash? Does the warning show up in the middle display?

Thanks in advance for you help

I'm running into same issue as well, bought aftermarket sensors that "suppose to" work but it doesn't read. So I am going to try to register the sensors using the OBD. There is a TPMS reset button under the driver side steering wheel that you can press to reset the warning light. But I've noticed that it's temporary as it will start flashing and turn to solid after driving for few miles in highway speed. Then it goes away again. To me it's annoying enough that if i can't get it to register, i'll purchase OEM sensors.
