    It won't matter to any decent tyre fitter if it has tpms valves or not, there is a 'procedure' for another word to use when removing or installing a tyre so the valve doesn't get trapped or damaged. It's nothing special.

    Your car will have tpms sensors and rubber valves, you can check if there original rubber valves , there's a ridge on the rubber valve you can see and feel. Alot of tyre fitters leave the rubber valve in as they cost more than a normal tyre valve and probably don't keep them . Ford recommend the valve is replaced when fitting new tyres. The sensor is screwed to the valve and can be swapped to new valves.

    As stef said , tyre fitters should remove the tyre without damage to sensors.
