Does the TPMS on the C8 automatically relearn or is a tool needed for those that went with aftermarket wheels? Thanks

Did you reuse the OEM ones that came with the car or new ones? Thanks

Apologies if this is a stupid question, but are new TPMs needed if you're JUST getting new wheels, but keeping stock tires?

I bought a separate set of wheels and tires for the track, and decided not to add TPMS, as I always check my pressures after every session.... the TPMS warning light comes on, but doesn't affect the car... as soon as I put the stock wheels back on the TPMS resets and functions fine.
