I don't think you have to with just switching the tires.

Correct. Not sure what that is. I think it's just a scam.

If you change wheels though, you might have to get an adapter since not all wheels are set up for TPMS.

Or you could get mounting brackets and have them mounted to your new wheels without drilling any holes... Just make sure if you go this route that the shop you take them to installs them TIGHT and CORRECTLY... They could eventually get loose and throw off the balance of the wheels... Which will make your car shake like crazy...

Okay I just call them and they said "if you have TPMS the kit is a must" I dont know if I should get it... sounds like a waste........

BTW when I return my car, I just have to have same speed (y,z, etc) rate and size tires rite? I dont want to buy bridgestone tires because its so expensive...
