TPMS sensors

On the 507 TST system would you use the short sensors or the flow thru?
  • I have the flow-through sensors and if any went bad I would replace them with the standard sensors. The flow-through allow such a small flow of air that it takes a substantial amount of time just to add 5 psi to a 16" trailer tire.

    I find that I take the darned things off to add more than a pound or two as it just takes so long to work with the flow-through. Not worth the hassle IMO.

    Just my opinion doncha know.
  • I Removed the. Lock SYSTEM and now. No differant then valve stem cap
  • Flow thru are more convenient if you need to add or release any air.
    I have the standard sensors and have felt no real need for the flow thru as my pressures pretty much remain constant thru the travel season. Adjust the pressure in the spring and I am good.
