TPMS is worthless if the tire throws the tread like lots of them do. There is no loss of pressure, but the damage is still done. Instead of spending money on that, I would first install quality tires.
Not worthless! The tpms gave me a good chuckle when tread separation tore up the side of my trailer. The tire held air for less than a minute after pulling off the road and putting the emergency flashers on. The alarm sounded and I just thought "now you tell me?". I really do like using them to keep an eye on the pressure and temps. I made sure my new tires had a nylon cap to help prevent having to be with the insurance company again.
Are you aware of the fact that the GY Marathon got a Nylon overlay in the late 1990's, and we all know how reliable they are as a result of that addition. Chris
