jackso11 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Am I right in saying people are going to pay £145 for something that tells you what the psi is of your tyres? I have a thing that cost me £1 that does that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it tell you that you had a puncture just before you got to a bend and loose grip smashing your car to bits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackso11 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 My lack of handelling would tell me I had a puncture. If it was a slow puncture I would see it when I parked. If it was a blow out I would know, I have had one before and nothing happened apart from the tyre walls vanished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you 're moving your car only on the road, you probably won't need this. But for track fun, it's a nice to have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Am I right in saying people are going to pay £145 for something that tells you what the psi is of your tyres? I have a thing that cost me £1 that does that. And temp, It will alarm and show you if your psi drops. Its instant and constant and is amazing for track use and road use. You will only notice a slow puncture if you see it, You will onlt notice a blow out when you lose control Atleast with this you will see the temp rising and the psi changing before the blowout so yeah this is a great bit of kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kranz Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 It will also tell you if a tyre is starting to delaminate as this tyre will get hotter than the rest and pressure will increase more then the others. If you've ever had a tyre delaminate or suddenly blow out at speed it is at best frightening and at worst lethal....... look at the Ford Explorer problems with people being killed in the US. This is why TPMS is now mandatory on all new cars over there. Far, far better than a £1 guage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 And temp, You will onlt notice a blow out when you lose control No you don't. I had one and just pulled over because the car was vibrating a lot. control was a bit strange but nothing to bad. Tyre had no walls inside or out, just like a big rubber band Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikbiomed Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 If it was a slow puncture I would see it when I parked. You would not see a slow puncture before this gadget. You can loose quite a few PSI before it becomes noticable but this will tell you straght away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kranz Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Well this worked the other day! Screw through the edge of the tread of my new low profile on the back of the Focus. Pulled over and changed it immediately. Problem is that the screw was about 3 inches long and had worn out the inside of the tyre sidewall, making it scrap! £72 later for another brand new tyre Still, I wouldn't have noticed it was flat as it was being held up by the low profile sidewalls which are pretty rigid! I could have continued driving on it until it fell off Next time it may save the tyre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terminator Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I have been in contact with this company, regarding use of the sensors without the supplied valves. I have 90 degree valves. The sensors can be fitted to the rims with adhesive without any function issues. However the manufacturer will not honour the guarantee if adhesive has been used. Needless to say I decided not to proceed. Just thought I would mention it, as there may be others with non standard valves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevan Posted October 21, 2009 Share Posted October 21, 2009 I've read this thread with interest, having had slow valve leaks - you can lose a fair bit of pressure before the difference in handling becomes noticable in general road driving. As I have split rims with 90° valves, I'd need to mount in the rim. The only real question I still have is about the banding used to hold them in place. How much does it affect the balancing? And does being wrapped in steel affect the signal? Thanks K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
