Can Sensors from 397 wheels fit the 437M?

I just bought some OEM 437M wheels for my F30. I asked the tire shop to move the sensors from my old Sportline 397 wheels and put them on the new 437's. The tire shop is hemming and hawing that the sensors may not be transferable to the new wheels.

Has anyone swapped sensors from 335i wheels to M3 wheels before?

It doesn't make a difference it's the sensors they will work perfectly fine.

Thanks, yeah the shop called a little while after I made this post and they said that the sensors should work on the new wheels.

Oh man. The shop just called again and said that the sensors from my 397 wheels won't work with the 437M wheels. My 335i uses the older pre-2014 sensors and the 437M has the next generation sensors.

They said the valve stems were too small and loose in the M3 wheels.
