TPMS sensor question

Hello. I have a 2021 Big Horn, my truck came with 4 new TPMS sensors in the glove box for a trailer. I'm curious If I can use those on the new wheels and tire package I just bought? i'm assuming I can, I can't imagine they are any different than any other TPMS sensor. I just wanted to check here first before heading out to the shop for install. Also is there a tutorial anywhere for how to program these new sensors? maybe I just should bring it to the Ram dealer?
Thanks for any help.

If it's for your truck tires I would have the dealer deal with it. I wouldn't pay to have them installed if it should've been installed already

Sorry I wasn't clear. the truck came with TPMS already in my truck tires, but due to having the trailer tow option on the truck it also came with 4 more sensors in the glovebox to install on my trailer tires so I can sink them to the truck. I don't need sensors in my trailer so I thought about just using them in the new wheel and tire package i just bought. This way I have two sets of tires and wheels with TPMS. Does that make sense?

Update! I tried to install the trailer tpms sensos on the new wheels and they looked terrible. They definitely are not the right ones. So I ordered OEM sensors for the wheels. Holy **** they are hard to install. I literally can't push them through the holes. I've tried with WD-40 and still no go. I'm going to have to let the dealership so it.
