Default Valve stem question?????

Hey guys i just wanted to know is there anyway to elimanate the valve stems sensors? I herd if you dont use the sensors the ECU well display on the gauge cluster saying "low tire pressure" will come on. Im changing to Z06 wheels this week and i dont want to use the valve stem sensors... but i also dont want my display saying low tire pressure... Any ways around this? any help would be great

The only way I know not to get the warning message is have the CPU edited with a Tech II.
Just curious why would you want to get rid of the warning system? It is a major help. I know guys with Z06s that want to add it on.

Thanks for the reply... I want to leave my stock wheels and tire intact. I am buying a set of z06 wheels and new tires. In order to do this ill have to buy another set up valve stem sensors.. Do you know of any other shop that sell the sensors cheaper then 100 for each? T/I/A
