can you drive w/o tpm sensors?

mkPOTO · 11-23-2009, 05:57 PM

Just curious, got a set of winter tires and they dont have tpms and they are coming by the end of the week and I was curious if that was okay to do this?

They're just TPMS. Not gonna hurt your car..

Craig@SupremePower · 11-23-2009, 06:22 PM

yes, you'll just throw a tpms code on your dash...

Yes you can. I did it for a couple of months til I got tired of seeing that error light come on.

Mark, everyone is right...wont hurt anything but it will trip your warning light on your dash and personally speaking, that would annoy the hell out of me lol.

I run w/o sensors every winter. The light is annoying but i just ignore it. It will flash a couple times when you first start up the car and then goes solid after.
