Default Two sets of TPMS sensors (Winter/Summer)?

All, I have a 2008 ST with Alloys, & I grabbed a set of OEM steel wheels from a 2013 ST to use for my winter tires. (I really believe I checked the forum to make sure they'd fit.) The tire shop said the winter tires I have will fit the rims. My question is: if I get a set of new TPMS sensors for the second set of rims/tires, will I have to reprogram the truck once to recognize them? or twice a year, every time I change the wheels over?

As long as they're the right sensors the truck should pick them up all on it's own. I know my wife's Journey picked up the ones in the wheel/tire combo I bought from Tire Rack.

I worked i a tire shop in WA. Most customers would just run a rubber stem in their winter rims, and just put up with the TPMS light on.

Got the standard TPMS from NAPA, installed at tire shop. The truck must have learned them. No indication of problems. Plug and play. I hope Dodge doesn't change that for later years.
