The tire sensors (or tire pressure sending units) are inside the tires. They are part of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).

One the other hand, Traction Control System (TCS) is applicable to the rear wheels only. TCS prevent the rear tires from spinning.

TCS works from the wheel speed sensors (on each axle).
