Does anyone amongst us have advice, experience or opinions on aftermarket tire pressure monitoring systems?
Our regular vehicles (car, truck) were made before TPMS came along, so the only experience I've had with them were on a rental car. (When the idiot light came on, it looked to me like someone's backside seated on a slatted sauna bench. Took awhile to figure out it was was showing a tire going flat.) Has anyone found them at all useful? Thanks in advance for your reply. -------------------- It's always the batteries!

+1 on the TST. I have the 507 with flow through sensors. Just towed through OKC at 104 degrees on Labor Day. Very comforting to see both the pressure and temperature.

Thanks for the info. We're leaning toward getting the TST 507s (replacable batteries are a nice feature). The monitor looks really good and the video makes set up look easy. Am hoping TST will have a vendor at the show in Hershey next week.
TireMinder is a system available locally so we were interested in knowing if anyone here has ever tried it. TST does seem to be the wa y to go though. -------------------- It's always the batteries!
