GM uses tire pressure sensors that are built onto the inside of the valve stem. You can transfer them to new Rims but you need to make sure they are located the same distance from the center point of the rim as the ones they came out of.
Then you can either make sure the correct TPS goes back into the same postition as they came off or your can reset them as you said. but they are not "Chips in the tires"

By the way most Rim Manufacturers offer a set of new TPS sensors that are compatable to your make car. all you need to do is ask them about it.
Good to know that Manufacturers offer a set of new TPS sensors that are compatable to your make of car.
FYI - the sensors in the tire are RFID tags. YES, they are "Chips in the tires" or valve stems.
