What do you guys recommend for TPMS clone-able sensors and the tool to "learn" them?

Heck, I was hoping to come back from lunch and find answers!

Make it 4, on the tool any way. I made my girfriend do the right thing when she bought winter wheels and tires, buy the sensors too. Dang Honda. The light has been on for over a year now, does not matter which set of wheels are on the car. The shop that got the sale, nation wide chain, could not get it to go out, and I dont want her to have to pay $100+ twice a year for the dealer to do it. Now I figure I should have had her skip the sensors and save the extra $200.

So in doing some research. I found these and this. Sensors are $25 a pop, tool is $110. Not bad considering Honda wants like $150+ for a single wheel sensor (at least the one i worked at).

I'll gladly pay around $225 for this - but it means buying second hand wheels to throw them on instead of brand new. I hate this TPMS garbage.

Ah! but the $25 ones are for Dodge. The Honda ones are $32. Still cheaper then from Honda or a major advertiser @ GrMs. :)

I'm missing something; why does this require second-hand wheels?

If I keep Civic vs. getting a Mustang. I have $xxxx for track wheels, brake pads, rotors, etc. If I get Mustang I have the same budget for track stuff...but I won't require extra TPMS sensors and a learning tool.
