Default Switching Wheels, TPS issues?

Long story short, I have 3 vehicles, the 2007 Denali XL, the 2003 Denali XL, and the 2004 Cadillac Escalade.

The 2003 Denali XL does not have Tire pressure sensors, while the 2004 Escalade and 2007 Denali XL do.

Now the conundrum. Before I sell the 2003 Denali XL, I wish to put the 2007 Denali XL wheels and tires on it (I don't particularly care for the look of the stock 2007 Denali XL wheels, and the tires are fairly blah all season Bridgestones).

I want to transfer the 2003 Denali XL wheels and tires, which are 20 inch Akuza Bounce rims on newish Michelin LTX/2 tires over to my Escalade (which is going bye bye as well in a couple of months when/and if my 2012 Jeep SRT8 - ok I am a cheater - ever gets built).

And the 22 inch OZ Canyon rims with Bridgestone Blizzak winter tires then in turn will go onto the 2007 Denali XL. Musical wheels and tires anyone?

Will it be much work then to transfer the Tire Pressure sensors from wheel to wheel? I guess what I am getting at is how hard is it to remove the 2004 Escalade and 2007 Denali XL Tire pressure sensors from one set of wheels to another? And has anyone done it with either (or similar) vehicle before.

Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

By the way, not sure if this is the proper forum for this question, so if it isn't, moderator please move me.

I guess I am in the right forum. I may be making this more complicated than need be, and here is why.

The vehicles that I plan on selling, the 2003 Denali, and the 2004 Escalade, I don't care if they have the proper tire monitoring sensors in them.

In the case of the 2003 model, it does not have a TPS system anyways, so simply putting the 2007 denali stock wheels and tires on it should be no problem.

With respect to my Escalade, if I put the Akuza bouce wheels, which have no tire pressure sensors on them, on the vehicle, will it cause any error codes? If not, then that problem is solved.


It seems like all I might have to do is put 2007 denalixl compatible tire sensors on the OZ canyon wheels before I put them on the 2007 denali xl, as that is the only vehicle i care to retain the tps on....
