Default selling wheels , newer wheels have no TPMS

Bought a set of 2016 wheel/tires but sensors are removed . Will there be any problems or just a light coming on in the dash till I order new sensors ? Also looking for the best deal on a set of new sensors.

will beep everytime you start it, but goes away quick. I drove like that last winter.
I got lucky, and recently got 4 more black rims with sensors for $600cad

Ran them for two years with the black tape fix. Bought four new sensors this year for $65, cost $20 to have them installed and tires mounted. Worth it.....

Check ebay, Rockauto, etc.
