Just check pressures from time to time...replace tires after 5 years. TPM is pretty worthless and just another distraction. jmo after 9 years.
Over the past 8 years, our TST system has alerted us to sticking brake calipers on both our toad and motorhome, a failed wheel bearing on our toad, and a couple of tire air leaks on both the toad and motorhome. Any of those events could have been much more costly if not caught quickly. There's valid safety reasons why all cars and trucks under 10,000 lbs built in the past 10 years have been required by the NHTSA to have a TPMS installed. There's nothing distracting about a TPMS until it alerts on a potentially dangerous condition. And that's when you want it to attract your attention...
