From what I have read and what the guy at the dealer ship told me no you can not have two sets. You would have to have them reprogrammed every time you want to change them out.

Stupid question so don't flame me. Do you only have to do this when changin out wheels and not tires. I put my snow tires on and haven't got the light so I should be in the clear correct? This is mounted in the wheel itself correct?

I have heard they may be coming out with some reprogrammable sensors at some point, this would allow us to run two sets with matching sensor IDs. But who knows when that would happen or if they would be compatible.
