Default ASA JH3 Rims

I have a set of 4 ASA JH3 rims that are 17" on my 350 and was wondering if any of you guys have these rims, or know if they are compatible with the TPMS sensors? I called the ASA dealer and he told me he could not confirm it because the tires were just discontinued. They also told me that the only other way would be to take the tire off the wheel and look for a flat spot by the valve stem. The tires are on my car now, and was hoping for an easier answer. So if any of you guys could help I would appreciate it.

figured that...i wouldnt waste the time or money to change them even if you can. do you have your stock rims in your garage? i have winter rims and it links up to the TPMS once i pull in the garage. of course one of the tires lost some air sitting so i have a low tire warning or to check the system...but i just ignore it and know in about 3 more months i will be back to the summer tires and rims.

on another note i drove the TSX a few days ago and interesting the first time i have seen the TPMS go off and it indicates which tire is low. I wish our system was this advanced rather then say you have a low tire

The stock tires are in my garage and that worked for about 3 days, but after I went on a trip of about 100 miles the warning lights came on, and have not shut off in over a month even with the car parked 4 feet from the sensors every night. I tried doing the tire toggle initial thing and it still has not worked.
