if i were you i would steer away from the tanabe springs
i've been hearing about a lot of problems with them
if you could find a replacement i would recommend it

go with T1R, eibach, or Tein's (Tein's drop a LOT)
just my 2 cents

Welcome to fitfreak!
looks good so far

yeah it will trip the tpms sensor
i'm pretty sure there is a way around it
and there are wheels that provide an adaptor to run the tpms with the new wheels

not too sure where the thread is at but i know it can be done
