Wow! All this technology and yet I've done about a zillion miles over 50 years by giving the tyres a kick now and then without any technological help and amazingly! we just keep rolling along.
I have decided to buy tyre pal! 3 new tyres whilst driving around Portugal, one a double rear shredding probably caused by dredded potholes and losing air in one tyre till the other got so hot it probably delaminated and exploded! 5 hours on a bend with no sodding tyres on a Saturday night not recommended, however, can't praise the Portuguese GNR highly enough, stayed with me until Recovery got spare wheel on rear and 5 mph and flashing light escort for 10 km all the way to Nazaire, a bloody good reason to carry a spare wheel for all you doubters, without one we would have been b*lloxed!! Or at least there for most of the night till they found a recovery truck big enough to recover us!!Know this posting is almost a year old, but I started the thread and thought I'd report on my findings.
Totally agree with Littlewheels above but when you're traversing a Moroccan desert road it's comforting to know that something is looking out for you. There have been a couple of stories of blowouts doing serious damage that might have been avoided - and I say might because sometimes you do get no warning.
Downsides? Fiddly if and when you need to change the pressures, although of course you don't need to do it so often..... Was surprised at how the pressure changes as the tyres heat up, more than the instructions would have you believe so I've had to change the warning thresholds to higher than I would like, but that may be the consequence of using winter tyres all the time. The instructions don't make any mention of this.
I'm a believer!
No need its a fact you can buy on ebay or direct , same price.Looks like tryepal have currently on offer the TB99 for 75 .00 inc vat plus 4.95 delivery charge. I will confirm tomorrow morning when I telephone them.
