Post TPMS Reusable?

So i bought a front and rear leveling kit (they sent me the wrong rear blocks..so now i hafta wait even longer to get it installed). I also got 18" rims off a 2010 F150 Lariat, and 275/70/18 Toyo ATs to put on after the level.
My question is I know i cant use my current TPMS bands since the new rims are an inch bigger, but can the actual TPMS sensors be reused if i buy new bands? Or will the tire shop give me **** about it and want me to buy all new ones?

All you need is new bands...$80 e-bay...you have to cut off OEM band's...they are crimped at the factory. Sensor's and the cradle can be re-used.
