Default TPMS stems

Kicking back watching DA BEARS sleigh the falcons and called SEARS for tires. They have the Comfortred Touring rated high on Tire Rack for 144 a piece plus 160 bucks back(V rated 70 k tires frinds and family sale today only). I do not remember getting these expensive stems last time but do I need them now? The primacies have 65 k on them with 6/32 tread left but winter is getting near(here we go again) and just not a snow tire fan. 30 miles from GB and a ticket holder "the bears still s....tink!

I will buy them and have my Yota dealer install them.

Hang in there Cadman!! Yur in my thoughts and prayers, Warm

The LS430 uses the ABS wheel rotation sensor to detect loss of pressure (tire circumference) rather than a pressure sensor. (At least that's how I understand it to work.) There is no need to purchase a TPMS sensor for each wheel. I prefer this method as you don't have to pay for sensors with winter tires nor do you have to re-teach the system where each tire is after a tire rotation or winter tire swap.

Thanks, Warm. We had a good family gathering today with lots of laughter and sorting through old pictures.

Cad, Family, friends, memories and laughter is a greqt start towards healing. I was happy I don't need more hardware for the LS. I will try the Goodyears for 440 bucks plus install and report back. Bro if ya want to make a road trip I would treat ya to a Packers Lions game at Lambeau, I live 30 miles from the Green and gold! Let me know mi casa is su casa!

Cad, We call it the "frozen tundra" but there is nothing like a 25 degree game with flurries or snow and no wind(I dought we would have that for 1/1. If ya want to come for a earlier game let me know you are just across the pond. We have 8 tickets for most games. It would be my pleasure to share the Joy of the greatest venue in pro sports as voted on time and time again. Otherwise lets see what the schedule god of the NFL pose for us next year.

There is such a love/passion for the Packers here come rain or come shine it is akin to the love you have expressed over the past posts.
