FYI - I use TST TPMS (over 10 years). DRW Sprinter 3500 chassis - I installed Borg metal stems on duallies, reg. brass stems on fronts. Toad is a Suby - rubber stems since they are internal in-car TPMS. Use 507 sending caps on all tires without issue for multi-thousand miles. As stated, flow-thru senders weigh more, and need the metal stems. Cap-type are lighter. If you are still concerned re: weight, you can also remove the anti-theft cap from the senders, which lowers both their profile and weight even more. Even if toad has internal TPMS, you can't monitor that in the coach, hence the need for other unit. VERY pleased with TST products and support! ST
