Go through the programming sequence for the TPMS sensors again.
If the tire store put new sensors in - were they working when you left the store?
The TPMS system on the 2001 is different than the 2000 and earlier and should be a little easier to deal with.
This thread has all the information you or the tire tech should need.

Not sure why that would matter - the pressure would be the same regardless of the tire size - at least that is my thought.

Try the sensor relearn and see what happens.

And moving this to C5 Tech.
