I am purchasing some aftermarket rims and have been reading all the threads about the TPS mounting. Sounds like a huge hassle to me. What problems are there when you don't use them, aside from checking your tire pressure the old fashion way. Is there an annoying dash light or something else? Do any of you guys not mount them? I own an 03 touring not sure if that matters. Thanks guys.

 

you'll probably get the low tire pressure light flashing, but you may be able to have the dealer disable it. i found the tps mounting to be a fun project, but that's just me.

 

nothing happens. ive changed 3 sets of wheels already with no TPS in any of them.. the TPS on the guage just shows "--psi" no low tire pressure light for me either.

 

I never put mine on when i had aftermarket wheels, but i heard you must have TPS too pass inspection T/F?

 

why would you need tps to pass inspection? that means every other car that doesnt have it would fail.

 

 

I didn't reinstall the TPS and i have no light on the cluster just my psi reads -- on the gauge.

 

nothing will happen. I don't have my TPS at all.

 

Nice. Thanks for the responses.
