I'm pretty sure that the TPSM sensor is attached to your wheels so, so long as you keep them, you should have it.

You can switch the TPMS over to new rims. I've switched the sensors between 3 different sets of rims and no problems.

If all you bought was new tires you won't have any issues. If you bought new wheels and tires you will have to swap the sensors, or have your installer swap them, into your new wheels. Most aftermarket wheels except them now but if the wheels you bought don't, for some reason, there are straps you can buy to make them adapt to your new wheels.
