EDIT: I'm rescinding this claim. I'll update below.
Hopefully you've got this sorted, but if not these worked for me:
Amazon product ASIN B0B8J4MT9F
You can probably find the same on your local amazon.
While the GR was 'identifying' tires and wheels, it absolutely failed to identify them over many hours and 100s of km. As soon as I cancelled the search, it found them in 2 minutes.

I have an Autel TPMS tool, just near Inverurie, it can clone your stock TPMS so there's nae fannying about when changing wheels.
Autel TPMS sensors £100 a set here, probably find them cheaper with a bit of searching: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174094693379

Glad to hear you got it sorted. In the interest of... something or other I wanted to update and rescind my recommendation:
"While the GR was 'identifying' tires and wheels, it absolutely failed to identify them over many hours and 100s of km. As soon as I cancelled the search, it found them in 2 minutes."
This made me think they were fine, and that the GRY's tpms finding process was just messed up-- plenty of other people have fought with it. With the wheels and sensors it came with I mistakenly started the wheel/position identifying process and it took forever to find those. So, I didn't think too much of this.
Then I made the mistake of doing the 'set pressure' procedure, and it lost the sensors again. And it's not found them again yet. I've tried to replicate what I did before, but so far with no luck.
The sensors look fine to my TPMS tool, but the car isn't picking them up. Although I'm also not overly confident about what's going to happen when I switch back to the original wheels.
When I eventually replace these tires I'll likely replace the sensors with the programmable Autel sensors and clone the summers just to be done with it.
