So I'm looking at buying gloss black 24" Dub Futures for my 2016 Yukon. I found a local place that sells them for $320/wheel.

1) Do I need to get new lug nuts, or will the stock ones work? I was wanting black lug nuts if I had to change them. What size will I need if I do have to change them out?

2) Cheapest place to get tpms? I didn't want to mess around with switching them back and forth between wheels.

3) Any recommendations on tires with the 24" wheel?

Depending on the bore of the new wheels you might have to get new lug nuts.

With nice wheels like those I would invest in wheel locks (which will come with new lugs anyways)

TPMS sensors can be found on eBay for a reasonable price.

As for tires I have Lexani LX Thirty tires and they have been good to me. A set of 4 tires will run you $800 that's for 26's

I don't know the bore of the wheel. Tire shop said I might have to get new ones, but they wouldn't be able to get black. The guy said that the lugs might have to be thinner?

Is $70 fair for 4 tpms?

I don't have anything else to add except I used both the Nitto 420S and the Yokohama Parada Spec-X. The Parada Spec-X may have been the best tire I've ever owned. Great for me in all conditions (Maryland weather). My only issue was it is a directional tire so rotating was more involved. The 420S was a good tire to me as well. The tread pattern on the 420S was a constant point of conversation where ever I went to the point that it began to be a bit of a PITA.

What type of TPMS sensor should I get? Can I just get AC delco or get some other brand? Do they have to be programmed?

I just bought some AC Delco tpms off amazon for $22 each with free shipping.

I also bought 14x1.5 spline drive lug nuts off ebay for $30ish

Not to jack your thread , but I just bought a set of Yokohama Parada Spec-x 285/45/22 over the Scorpion Verde AS +. The Pirellis get great reviews but not really from big wheel SUVs, Yokohamas get better reviews in GM made SUVs. Can't wait to feel the difference.
