What type fo 20" wheels did you go with? Some aftermarket wheels are still not TPMS compatible.

You can simply reposition the valve stem and mount them to the inside of the wheel with a strap. Most nationwide tire dealers that work in volume (like America's/Discount Tire) can do this, or order a strap mount system for you.

Tried to reply to you but your PM mailbox is full. Anyway, it's not uncommon for the stock TPMS to not fit on new wheels because some wheels don't come with the hole to allow the TPMS to lay flat.
Your stock wheel sensors can be used...The wheel/rim shop will have to modify(drill) your new 20" wheels to get the stock wheel sensors to fit.
