TPMS Sensors

Does anyone that has the TPMS Tire Tracker use the locks that come with the sensors? It seems like it would take a lot of time not to mention wearing out the set screws to remove the locks every time you needed to add or physically check the tire pressure. Then on the other hand, I guess you would feel more comfortable about them not coming undone while traveling down the road. I would hate to have to replace any for what they cost. I was just curious as to what the consensus was out there. Thanks
  • OK, thanks everyone for your replies. I was really curious if anyone ever had trouble with them coming off, I guess they don't. Good, I will go with that. Thanks again.
  • Same here, 16000 miles and never had one come loose on the coach or toad, and never had one stolen while camping or sitting in the storage lot.
  • I don't use them either. Over 10k of travel using them and never had a problem with them coming loose.
  • I don't use them. I would however drill a second hole 180 degrees from the first one and have a second valve to add air if I were to do it again.
