tpms on my winter rims

looking to get a new set of rims with new tpms sensors (winter tires) . i'm told i have to go to the dealer to get them programmed. when i swap it back to summer tires with the origin set of sensors will i have to have the dealer reprogram them as well? just don't want to buy another set of sensors if every time i swap rims i'll have to make a trip to the dealer.
thanks in advance.

Yes, they have to re-pair it. I can't remember the price they quoted me, but I decided to live with the warning for the winter. -- Snow

Yes, it's like 50-60 bucks, EACH TIME. So that's twice a year.

The warning's not as bad as you think because it's not unexpected since it's the first thing that hits you when you turn the car on. It's become 2nd nature after like 2 weeks for me to just hit the "ignore" button.
