Hopefully TPMS sensors have become more accurate since I checked them. Or maybe they can be recalibrated somehow. I don't know much about them. But I think it's important to recognize there can be significant inaccuracies in them.

yeah i was worried about that too. but the sensors have a .5psi resolution. i also did a small log comparing temps too. and noticed the psi increases in a linear fashion. Keep in mind that the sensors are Absolute pressure so if your off like by 2psi most likely you might be in a higher elevation point. traditional gauges are relative pressure then absolute.
Edit:
I see your from denver colorado! see there's your problem lol. your around 5.2k feet above sea level lol your getting around 12psi ambient. while were close to sea level we see 14.6psi so that's where your discrepancy comes from.
