Tire Pressure Monitoring System
I am getting ready to get new tires on my motorhome, and I am looking at getting a TPMS. Any recommendations on what system is the best / most reliable?

TST seems to be the standard for most everyone. There are several on the market, so do a little Google Research and make an informed decision. I like the TST 510 system I have. It does a great job of monitoring all tires' relative pressures and temps. I have found that the pressures reported on the monitor are about 3-5lbs below what an actual gauge reads, but now that I know that I use the monitor to indicate a significant change in pressure and temp when riding. After having 2 blowouts less than 2 months apart, I appreciate that I might get some notification before the next one and possibly avoid all the damage that comes with a blowout.
The only drawback I have found is that with the 510 system you have to take the sensors off to adjust air pressure in the tires. If I had it to do over again, I would get the flow-through sensor system...I think that's the 507. Other than that, I would definitely recommend the TST products!
