Hey guys. If I have a 2nd set of rim/tire for my winter set-up in the garage (uninstalled with TPMS), how can I be sure that the iDrive is not sensing them together with the one currently installed with TPMS as well. In the morning, after starting the engine, there are 8 TPMS that the iDrive can possibly recognize. Thanks.

I'm thinking proximity/range of the sensors would prevent the car from picking up the non-installed wheel sensors. I have my winter wheels stored in my garage and never had an issue.

I see. Many thanks for the input. That's good to know.
