If you have a '00 and earlier car, the only way to get rid of the messages permanently is to reinstall the sensors - either using the stock mounting method if the wheels accept them or by band clamping them if needed. If you have a '01 and newer C5, you can have the TPS tuned out.

Why not use the sensors?
They can be a life saver. I would spend the money and have them installed over having the codes removed.
