R53 Wheels on new Clubman TPMS

I can't seem to get a straight answer on this and also can't imagine I'm the first person to try this...

In the spring we picked up our '11 Cooper S Clubman. I'd like to use the spare S-lite wheels from my '05 R53 as the snow wheels for the new Clubman.

So my question is if I order another set of TPMS sensors will they fit on the 05 S-lite wheels?

I'm not dismounting the summer wheels and using those sensors.
I'd rather not get a set of steel wheels since I already have the 05 S-lites.

Thanks

Although I don't know 100% that my answer is correct; here we go with a comment. I think you will have no problem mounting new TPMS modules on your 2005 wheels if you also purchase (a new) "valve stem assembly" which you attach the modules to with a screw. I cannot imagine that the hole in your 2005 wheels through which the valve stem assembly goes is not standard; thus, this should not be an issue for you. I also think you can purchase the valve stem assembly at many outlets and/or online. Hope this helps!

Have you mounted them to your Clubman yet to make sure they fit? I thought there was hub difference between the generation or the something to do with the lug bolts.
