Even worse on gravel roads. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/54061-tyre-pressure-temperature-monitoring-system/#findComment-814092 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPYBNE Member 14 Member For: 16y 2m 29d Posted 23/02/09 10:19 AM Share Posted 23/02/09 10:19 AM Hi,I can recomend the Hella TPMS - great system, dosent rely on stupid looking nobs on the end of your valve stems which are easily nicked.Hard to get in Aus, but if you know someone traveling to the US, you can get them from about $300 aud.http://www.tirerack.com/accessories/detail...ATPMS&ID=51Great units - reliable and neat, and a great safety feature.After fitting to one to my Toyota, I'm now thinking about getting two more and fitting these to my XR6 and STI.CheersJames Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/54061-tyre-pressure-temperature-monitoring-system/#findComment-829566 Share on other sites More sharing options...
