Opinions on the best TPMS

Considering price, reliability, ease of use, and mountability in the S2RV cab.

Thanks in advance

I have been happy with my EEZEE TPMS. Not sure there’s an actual “best”, at least I haven’t seen an independent test that identifies one.

Seems to be a lot of us really happy with our TST systems..take a look on this forum & seems the Tire Minder system gives a lot of faults readings to their owners as I just was reading on this forum a couple days ago.

I have a Tire Tracker TT-600 10-wheel tire monitoring system with TT-200 signal booster, which monitors my tow vehicle's 6 tires and fifth wheel trailer's 4 tires temperature and pressure. Very reliable. Easy to install and program.

TST. Easily expandable to cover the toad/trailer as well. Reliable and easy.

X2 on the EEZRV TPMS.

Have had mine for 8 years and recently upgraded to the new (smaller) sensors and the larger color monitor.

Whatever system your looking to purchase....it's best to be able to monitor both tire pressure and tire temperature like the EEZRV system provides.

TST works great for us. Initially I thought the screen was a little archaic, but after using it I realize it is simply monitoring pressure and temperature, so no need for a complicated screen. Booster was easy to install.

X3 on EEZRV TPMS with non-flow through sensors. 6 years and it's been very reliable with no issues.

Haven't needed a booster in my 40 footer.

EEZee is great, you can buy regular watch batteries for the sensors. You can find them cheap on EBay most of the time.

I have the TST for a very simple reason. I want the system to warn me if something is wrong, rather than "watching" pressures as I'm driving. I didn't mount the screen, just keep it in the door panel. When I had a blowout the alarm went off and I didn't need to know anything else until I stopped. I keep the screen out as I am hooking up, look at once a day if we are going to move, but put it away once driving starts.

Thanks everyone. TST is will be. I like the idea of not having it out also. But need to ponder.

Next question - do y’all prefer CAP or PASS THROUGH sensors on your rigs?

Cap sensor definitely! You really only need to add air maybe 2 or 3 times a year at most (unless you have a leak) and it’s just as easy to unscrew the sensor as it is to unscrew a valve stem cap. I always remove and throw away the “anti-theft” ring which goes over the sensor…..so no need to use a special tool, AND the weight of the sensor is now just a tiny amount.

IMHO the EezTire system is just as good as TST, but at a much lower price.

Look at how tiny the sensor is!

TST for me. It has worked well for us on two coaches and our toad. Did not have to use the extender.
