TPMS - OEM vs aftermarket

I'm getting a second set of wheels/tires. Should I go with OEM or aftermarket TPMSs? Any recommendations?

Aftermarket. So much cheaper and they do the exact same thing.

Anyone have experience with Tire Rack's sensors? The rep I chatted with claims they're the same as OEM...

I got aftermarket ones from discount tire. They initially forgot to program them but I went back, they spent 5 minutes programming them and then good to go. They provide a 6 year warranty on them too.

That's a HUGE price difference. Will definitely be ordering aftermarket.

I got a set from 1010Tires with my setup and they are just fine. No issues swapping between wheels either, I run a set in each of my wheel sets.
