My buddy had some failing TPMS sensors on his C5 track wheels. We took the wheels over to the Military Auto Hobby shop (a DIY shop). Put each wheel on the wheel machine, broke the bead at the sensor location and deformed the tire just enough to pull the sensor out and replace with standard stem. Re-inflated and reset the bead. Done. 10min per wheel. No re-balancing required since the tire did not move around the wheel.
