Also i'm curious where you got your source on the 20 miles thing. Never heard of this before.

My tires are ~15 feet from my car and separated by a sheet of drywall and metal door. The manual might say something about the distance driven vs TPMS light illumination; however, my only evidence is personal experience. My commute is only 6 miles round trip and the light has never illuminated, regardless of how long I've been away from my summer tires. However, when I drive for longer distances, I notice the TPMS light will illuminate at ~20 miles, regardless of the time it took me to go that 20 miles.
