tire pressure sensors needed on track only wheels?
 
I have a different set of wheels ready for the track. Do I need to worry about the tire pressure sensors that are not on these wheels? '14BRZ

No need to worry. I changed my tires and rims and I'm not using any pressure sensors. You'll just see a yellow light in the dash. It doesn't turn on immediately.

You'll be fine without them. You'll just get a low tire pressure warning on the dash.

I switched my stock wheels (and the TPMS) to become winter wheels a year ago, knowing my other set I was going to buy for the April-November use wouldn't have the TPMS. Who cares? I check my pressure every few days (or at least once a week) anyway.

Does not having the TPMS sensors installed prevent you from disabling any of the traction control/stability control systems? If so, wouldn't it be counter productive to NOT have them on your "track" wheels?

No, the only affect of having no TPMS sensors is a yellow dash light. nothing else

Yes, because it makes absolute perfect sense to drive around on public roads with no assists on.

Who says you turn it on on public roads. It's for track. Use at your own risk on the street. The OP said track also. There are cars and trucks on the road with no assists. :iono:

Holy crap $160 for something you can do just as fast for free....
