Default Changing wheels- TPMS sensor

hi all- I just purchased a 2011 camaro LT as my daily driver. I also found a set of rims minus the tpms sensors and tires. My question is can I use the sensors from my stock 18s? Or do I need to buy new ones?? Thank you for your help

Just take the hydraulic bar that's on most tires machines and break down that side of the tire and take them out.
