there are lots of good systems out their. I have the tireminder tm77 system and like it a lot. mostly because I have two trailers and it is easy to configure for either trailer when I hook up.

but do some searching and find one you like.

Keep good tires on your unit, Check dates on tires when you purchase them, check air pressures before you pull out every time. If you blow one the monitor is going to be very little help anyway. Very few go down slowly and you will see that when you check daily when using the unit.

I can tell you for sure I was on I-65 and blew a tire; never felt a thing. The car next to me honked a told me it was smoking. I could not believe it.

Never say never.

Agree totally. Happened to me also. I had gotten a new hand held IR temp gauge so I had stopped and one tire was reading quite a bit higher than the other tires. Had stopped probably 100 miles before and the temperature was still higher than others. Air pressure was also higher than the other tires so I know it was not due to low pressure. My trailer has dexter torsion axles. Just before I was going to get off the interstate a vehicle pulled up on my left side and started pointing back at my trailer. I pulled over and the tire was "GONE" and I never felt a thing. After that I decided to get the TT-500. Also my truck is a dually and checking the inside tire is a pain so that helps. anyone who say's check before and no problems is blowing smoke up you ??? :)

I have the TST 507 and like it.
