Yet another aftermarket gadget.

Still don't see where the chassis manufacturers adopted any of these yet.

Fortunately the majority of the members here are open minded and willing to take a chance on learning something new.

Helps the rest of us have a place to sound out new ideas.

They don't. Not their circus, not their monkey. It's after market, end of story.
Back ON TOPIC, Tyron Bands prove their value in certain situations, but I'm not ready to dive into the pool. Keep posting folks

I am merely stating my opinion, never stated that anyone should NOT buy these products, I feel they are a waste of $$ and make some lazy to the fact that you need to be "hands on" with the Equipment...the more you "depend" on a Techie product to save yer butt the less likely it will...debris in the Road, nothing will prevent that, debris on the road and someone not paying attention due to the fact that they have a "lining" in the tire that might save them...Dunno.

Ya right, like TPMS didn't start out as aftermarket, or electronic ignition, or fuel injection. The good ideas eventually become their circus monkey.

....and give someone the reason to complain about the price addition, then the ones that will say "I want to add my own TPMS"...where we at now?

I give up. Of all people I thought I was standing behind it was you, but I guess not. This is getting way off topic and I didn't mean for it to.

Just because I have Tyron bands as an additional safety feature doesn't mean that I don't check my tires and always ensure proper inflation before every trip. One thing does not exclude the other. I'll take every possible advantage that I can get. And all the things I have discovered about them lead me to believe that they could be an advantage during a real emergency. So, pun intended, whatever spins your wheel.

That coach was on the latest FMCA cover, July 2016, plus a great article inside.

I would like to own that coach but need to come up with $1,350,000 to do the deed.

Ain't gonna happen.
