Need advice on setting TPMS alarms
I just got a Carchet TPMS System for my 5'r which has max/min alarms for pressure and a max temp alarm. What would be good settings for these alarms given a load rating E tire? Baseline pressure is 80...

You'll find that it's somewhat of a trial-and-error process as the operating characteristics of your tires will depend on the construction of the tires (all steel construction tires tend to run cooler), load, speed, ambient conditions, etc.
With a cold inflation pressure of 80 PSIG, I'd start with max pressure = 95 PSIG, min pressure = 70 PSIG and max temperature = 158 degF (the latter is recommended by TST based on consultation with tire industry engineers). Then adjust as required.
