transfer TPMS to VMR wheels from old wheels

Hi,

I have a question for transferring tire sensors to VMR wheels. Is there any problems with BMW OEM sensor and VMR? fitting issues or etc.? My VMR wheel is 18' v710 and old wheels are M189.

Would you say it's cheaper to have the tires dismount/remount and have the shop transfer the tpms onto new rims or would it just be cheaper to buy a new set of tpms from tire rack?
Dont really have space to leave a car on jack stands for an entire day so a someone would probably have to do it for me.

If your selling the stock wheels or planning on using them in the future it would probably be best to just get new tpms.

Neither. It'd be cheaper to find a set of used TPMS from this board or Ebay.
