TPMS - Buying from China - Any suggestions
I am checking to buy a TPMS on Aliexpress from China where it seems to have some good price. Anybody had suggestions on brand, good, bad, any.

The Chinese data processer provided as part of the monitoring system is likely to have spyware imbedded in it that will search your engine monitoring system and wifi driven computers. Do not take inappropriate selfies or exceed the speed limit as it will be posted on the net.
WOW....
I'm not a tinfoil hat guy, seriously. But Chinese firmware, and most certainly spyware, is rampant in our electronics. Smart, sane people worry about our telecom backbone, our power grid.
However, last time I checked, I don't recall anyone bringing up a TPMS system as a major concern. :)
If you think about it, there are a dozen other easier ways to track you, infect your car than thru a TPMS system.
A Chinese hacked TPMS system doesn't make my list of worries.
