I bought a $250 four-sensor TireTraker system a few years back and had to upgrade to "high pressure" stems (not metal ones) but after having a rear trailer tire almost destroy itself, the peace of mind a TPMS provides is priceless. My sensors also report about 2psi low, but I don't lose sleep over it.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15974453598992131798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-47764319690412446192016-05-06T12:45:53.590-04:002016-05-06T12:45:53.590-04:00Right, not a big deal for me either.

You relaly need to spend about $500 on soemthign like http://www.tpms.ca/<br /><br />I went the $100 route first and ended up throwing it out. In my case its especially importnat to have a good quality system that also measures temperture as i tow a trailer. Sensors are $50 a piece with the better system.Paul Beddowshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16471244341564465899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-75485661233492570572016-05-06T11:05:07.514-04:002016-05-06T11:05:07.514-04:00Nice critique on the pressure monitoring system :-...Nice critique on the pressure monitoring system :-)Rita from Phoenixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08722798328449733244noreply@blogger.com
