Tyre Monitoring System

Hi All, hope you well.
Can someone please give me advice on the following? I’ve purchased a tyre monitoring system and want to add a second valve to my rim as this would solve the problem of removing the sensor when inflating/deflating the tyre. However, I’ve been told by 2 tyre specialists that it is not possible to drill a hole in the flat part of the rim as it will prevent the valve from passing the calliper.
Is it possible to add another valve in the same way as the current one, if yes, who will be able to assist me with this. If not, what other options do I have? I drive a generation 3 Pajero LWB.
Regards,

I don't think it will be possible on the mag wheels, maybe on the steel rims. Why do you not want to remove to inflate? It really is as easy as pie?

You can keep the monitor in your hand while inflating/deflating and stop at exactly the right pressure. Works the same as with presure guage but much quicker.
