I drove back to Ottawa from Montreal yesterday and there was a total of 8 cars in the ditch on the 417.

Good thing I had winter tires, I guess!

Be safe!

Anyone running winter wheels without TPMS sensors and DON'T have the warning light on? I've been driving around since Saturday and the light is still not on *knock on wood*.

Do you park close to the stock tire with tpms in them? Thatvwill reset the system and if you are like less than 50km away every day, the light won't come on. My summers are like that - @Slick will remedy mine properly by programming/pairing my summers in the spring

Yup, what Ken said. Same for me. As long as I am close to the sensors when I start the day, they are okay all day (if I stay local).

No TPMS on Suby? Weird that it has all the other bells and whistles but no TPMS.
