TPMS Question

Just bought an '09 H3T Alpha, and am looking to pick up a second set of wheels for winter tires. If I find a set w/o the TPM sensors already on them (and don't really care to spend the extra $ to buy the sensors) can I expect a warning light only on the dash when that set of wheels is installed, or am I going to get a audible warning also (buzz, chime, etc...)??? I can live with the first, but not the second. Thanks.

You bet. I know because when I put the 35" wheeling-only shoes on my T, the aftermarket wheels don't have TPMS sensors.

My warning light comes on twice. Once at startup. Clear it. And once more after about 5 miles of driving. Clear it again. It doesn't come back on the rest of that trip.

Perfect. Is it safe to assume that nothing changed with respect to brakes, hubs, etc.... such that factory wheels from an '06 H3 will bolt onto an '09 H3T?
