Sorry, I meant you can buy two sets of TPMS sensors for the car. I have 1 set in my OEM rims as they're my winter rims and I bought another set for my summer rims. The part number for the TPMS sensors are Acura part # 42753-STK-A02/A03. Since you live in CA and don't have winter you might not need an extra set.

Ex:

4 ACURA RDX MDX TSX HONDA PILOT TPMS WHEEL RIM SENSOR :eBay Motors (item 230392957597 end time Nov-06-09 12:27:46 PST)

You can buy these as an extra set and have them installed in your new rims. You will need the dealership to possibly program the new set with your car. If you do not place in the TPMS sensors then you will get an annoying alert saying there is an error with the system or something because I kept getting that until I placed in the sensors. This is just another option instead of taking out the sensors from your OEM rims and placing them in your new ones.

Most rims can take the thickness of the valve stems from the sensors but a select few rims are not able to. More than likely you will be fine though, it was just something I felt was worth mentioning.
