As long as whomever removes them doesn't break or damage them, they will work fine.
There are different styles, but here is one style and how to remove/reuse them:

EDIT: Make sure you remember what sensor goes where. If you move the sensor to a different tire location, they will all need to be relearned.
Search this forum for the relearning procedure (I posted it not too long ago).

When I put the aftermarket wheels on my car, I reused the ones that came with the car. One of them did break from removal so I had to go to the stealer to get a replacement since it was the weekend. Be careful when removing them.
Since you are reusing the factory sensors, pick up the TPMS servicing kits from Napa which are a few bucks a piece. Its cheap insurance down the road in case one of the seals has a leak.

They're reusable and should last ten (10) years (battery life).

OP- I re-used the factory ones when I switched to my ASA AR1's.
