If the only thing concerning you about the CR-V is metal valve stems I think that you are going to have the same problems with any toad. I and dozens, if not hundreds, of others have used TST TPMS sensors on toad rubber valve stems with no problems. Ignore those who muddy the water with info about the federally based monitoring systems since you need to be in your car to use it. Yes, the TST FAQ page does say it is best to use metal valve stems but if you call them I think that they will say that rubber stems are also okay. Maybe they will not but they have to consider the liability issue with any statements. Their primary customer is the truck/RV owner. The tires on these units have much longer stems. I cannot envision a situation other than something like a car wash where the typical short auto rubber stems would cause a problem.
