My head says to have them switched over. My pocket says dont worry about it. LOL
haha I hear ya, but for the $130, the tpms is a good peace of mind, imo. You could possibly save a tire from getting shredded (catch it before it gets too flat) or even a rim. So, for the $130, you could potentially save a $200 tire and/or a $300-$400 rim.

Someone on this forum wrote this and it really resonated with me: pay once, cry once.

i.e. or possibly pay/cry more than once. At the very least, I would pull them to have on the side if you can do it yourself. That way you can install them should you have buyer's remorse thereby avoiding having to spend ~$300 on new tpms units.
