Inside the rim. These are pressure transducers that send a radio signal to the ECM/BCM (car's computer) and tell the car what the pressure is inside the wheel. The signal is then read on the console of the car and more sophisticated vehicles present a value like 30 psi, less sophisticated vehicles only alert when there's a reading that's "out of range." If they're bad or sending incorrect signals they can often be reset by the user interface on the car's console. If the transducer is bad, it will have to be replaced and a "handshake" sequence initiated for the car to recognize the new transducer.
This is advanced technology, but is more common place on late model vehicles.

Most TPMS Sensors will last 3 years plus, I've found that if the sensors are kept out of the open enviroment they can last well over 7 to 10 years. Most of these type sensors fail do to the lack of training that tire technicians have, There are proceadures which are not followed by tire techs, so it is important that you choose your tire service provider carefully.
