Anyone NOT run TPMS?

9iron · 10-13-2011, 04:02 PM

I bought a new set of 189's that didnt come with TPMS. The dealer wants $100 each for the OEM tpms. Do i have to bite the bullet and pay this, or is there aftermarket sensors that are cheaper/just as good?

I dont even care if i have them personally, but i would go nuts having that stupid dash light on all the time.

Thanks.

install a pix of your gf on the dash to cover the light.

look for a used set online. or you can even pay just a little more and buy a new set from some vendors here. and it still wont be $400.

my new wheels didnt come with tpms and i still havent bothered getting a set yet... been 6 months and it sorta bothers me but whatevers. lol

My winter set up wont have them. But i have a feeling that the light will annoy the crap out of me.

Typically used for race car setups which will have multiple sets of wheels - the Macht Schnell has the TPMS emulator, which can be turned on/off at will.

I don't have them currently for my 230's since discount tire didnt have the correct rebuild kit for them.
The light annoys me so I might invest in an emulator or get the RS tecnik TPMS from PYSOEED.
