The 4th and 5th gen runners seem to make it more difficult that necessary. I opted to just disable TPMS completely in both of them. Super easy in the 4th gen, and only a little more involved in the 5th.

What car do you have that senses the new TPMS transmitters? Acura/Honda does, but I didn't think that ant 4R/LC does that currently.
While it may be possible to disable the system, it is a violation and, quite simply, foolish. Prior to the implementation of the TREAD Act, the majority of cars on the road had under inflated tires and a significant amount had pressure that was at least 25% under the placarded value.
