Default Re: Tire sensors

X2 for the TST 507. My 10 sensor system has been flawless since getting the newest version in July 2010. Won't leave home without it.

Aside from peace of mind, I can now safely use lower tire pressure by following the manufacturers recommendation for my CAT weighed coach. Instead of filling to 100 PSI 'to be safe', I now use 75 PSI rear and 86 PSI front to get a significantly smoother ride.

Remember: Pressure changes with ambient outdoor temperature. Cold days need more pressure - hot days need less. With a TPMS you can easily make changes before setting out.

That reminds of a distinct advantage with the TST 507 RV: Its sensors transmits even when the coach is standing still. With many other systems, the sensors do not transmit until you start moving. For me that is too late. I need to check pressure before we get going for the day.
