Tire Pressure Sensor ?
 
Ok I have the TPS monitoring system.If I replace my wheels and tires that do not have the senors in the wheels will I always have a warning light for them in the dash?

My summer wheels don't have the sensors and they will blink for maybe 15-30seconds than stay on. After a few start ups each spring you won't even notice it.

I may look into that.I think the light would annoy me

Yep, unless you have it disabled (I didn't know they could do that) the light will flaxh and then stay on. The DIC will also display warnings...

Kind of what I thought, I understood there were some legal ramifications to disabling safety devices...

Well that sucks.I could probably live with the light,but not the dic displaying the message:(

As one member said..make a can that can be pressurized and place unused sensors in it, seal , pressurize to 30-35 psi, place in quiet place in car and happy motoring....

If your going to that much trouble, why not just buy the 3 additional sensors? I know there are some cheapo's on eBay...
