TPMS question....
Recently bought a new set of wheels and tires along with new tpms. Says I need to have the new tpms set with a scanner, where would I go to have this done? And do they charge for this?

Local tire shop should have the tool to read the sensor codes without dismounting the tires.
You will need the codes programmed into the vehicle. They may have the laptop with software, but it may be a long shot.
Dealer can program the codes for you.

We have two cars, each with two sets of rims - it has already paid for itself.

Does that mean on some trips the pressures don't show? In which case the TPMS light should be on and codes set.
Or does that mean it takes a minutes before they show each time you start the car? Which is normal.
Programmable ones of what? The sensors?

I am buying a new set of rims and tires with TPMS all mounted do I need tire rack to turn on the sensors? I read somewhere that they do not automatically turn on when mounting a programming them?

The sensors need to be woken up after they are installed. The tire shop should have the tool to wake them up after they are installed, and potentially the tool to also program them.

Maybe you can clarify what 50% of the time means?
