TPS turn off

I put new rims on my 07' today and found out it had the TPS senors which I did not know it had. The tire dealer installed the tires without new senors,and now the light is on on the dash. Is there a way to get rid of the light without installing the senors? The tire dealer told me they were crazy expensive,but never told me how much they were. Any help would be appericated.
Thanks!

you could pull your cluster and remove the bulb.

Yep - that's the only way.

Look at Tire Rack. They also sell the sensors and are probably a lot cheaper than the dealer. Another option is to call Tasca Parts (Ford online parts dealer). They are usually 25-30% what dealers are asking.

Firestone said they couldn't do this. Is it possible?
