No, they don't have the sensors, but why bother? You have to deal with a yellow light staring at you for a few months...meh. Not worth the cost, IMO. I ended up buying these with one-season used Blizzaks on them for $325:
Well, snow finally fell on my midwestern city, so I figured I'd get my winter rubber on. I wanted to go with 16" so that I had some extra sidewall to prevent the wheel damage that my 6 endured last winter. I snagged a nice find on Craigslist. They are a set of Pacer 16x7" wheels that were used on a Ford Fusion. They had one-season old Blizzaks installed, 205/50R16. Not the size I wanted, but for $300 I had to try them. I lost 1/2" ground clearance and 5 mph @ the speedo, but I can live with that for a season.
They actually ride and handle much better than I anticipated, and don't look horrible either. They barely clear the front calipers. In fact, there is literally only 1-2mm clearance from the wheel weight to the caliper bracket. But, no rubbing or clearance issues. $300 well spent.
