TPMS Systems

Find it interesting about comments about "customer service is great".

If the system is any good then I would think you would not know anything about customer service.

Not one of the choices but I've had a TST507 for about a year and a half now and am please with it. Customer service is great.

Tire Minder here,,, they have great customer service plus they give you free batteries and O-rings annually,,,, that reminds me, I gotta' call them for mine lol.

I'm looking at adding a TPMS system to my rig.

I've considered installing one as well. If (when) I do, I'm planning to have a tire shop swap my valve stems over to metal. I've read of some people just adding the monitor to the end of rubber valve stems with no problems. However, last year I was simply check tire pressure on my trailer prior to a trip and as I put on the gauge the stem wiggled a bit then started leaking air. That small bit of movement was just enough to let a crack spread and open. I had to pull the tire and get a new stem installed.

With that experience, I don't want to trust the weight of a TPMS sending unit wobbling on the end of a rubber valve stem. If I'm going to spend the money for a system, I'm going to get metal stems that I can be certain will handle the extra force.

For those that have the EEZ system, do you recommend getting the booster? I have a 42' 5th wheel and a F350 long box. I was wondering if the signal would be strong enough to cover that distance.

TireTracker here. I had one sensor that started throwing a false signal which was immediately replaced under their lifetime warranty.

I love AM in the morning.

Thank you all for your responses to my question about a "TPMS" and thank you fj12Ryder for the grammar lesson!

Didn't mean for it to be a grammar lesson. :) It just bothers me when I see "VIN number", "SSN number", "PIN number", etc. It's kind of like all these banks that have shortened their names to just letters: NASB Bank, which used to be North American Savings Bank, so now it's North American Savings Bank Bank. We have a local bank: United Missouri Bank which now is UMB Bank, United Missouri Bank Bank. Just stupid. There are lots of them and they irritate the heck out of me.

EEZ system here. Worked great and saved the day. I wouldn’t go without a TPMS.

Bayley...just to make you feel better, how many people say RPMs? It is just R(evolutions)P(er)M(inute), you don't need the s.

Anyhow, glad you got some responses.
