Wanted to chime in just to mention that the majority of TPMS on the road today also monitor your temperature, which is important for brake and bearing issues like the one discussed in this thread.

Thanks for the tip on Tire Minder. I'm really dissatisfied with my current TPMS (TST). It does not display all the tires at the same same and you have to watch it s-l-o-w-l-y cycle thru each tire. It's a dangerous distraction on the road. Plus it did not catch the two blowouts that we had this last summer.
In regards to the TireMinder system, it does not cycle through each tire position automatically. It does, however, display any tire that has an issue and display the tire issue (high pressure, low pressure, high temp, etc.). Which you pointed out can be distracting and dangerous.
