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!

We have used a Pressure Pro system for five years with no issues - has been a great system for us. TST seems (if you pay attention to forums) to be the most popular today. There are others. IMO, I consider a TPMS as important as seat belts and fire extinguishers.

Thank you very much for the information. It helped. Reluctant spouse in now on board with spending the money for a TPMS.
Has anyone heard of, or had experience (good or bad) with, a system called "Tire Minder"? -------------------- It's always the batteries!
