this is answered in the 1st post

Option B - Buy new sensors and have them installed in your new wheels. This option will allow you to have a multiple sets of wheels
with the system intact. However, the car can only be programmed to recognize one set of sensors at a time. So, you will have to go to a
honda dealership and have the reprogram the system each time you change wheels. People have reported that the cost of this at the dealership
is roughly $100.
Note: Buying new sensors and what you intend to do are the same thing... its a different set than what came with the car, and thus, will need to be programmed
