I understand the lure of the data a real time display would provide, I’m just not willing to spend any money to get it. And I’m not clear how going HAM on it with sensors and screens solve the nagging light issue. My wife’s Camry will display each tires pressure but it’s not synced to which corner of the car the tire is on. It’s useful in that when I get lax about keeping up with her car and she feels like it’s becoming a bigger pig, she can wart me to air up the tires and throw a number at me. But, I’m usually ahead of that curve. That, of course, is just me. Different folks - different strokes.

Personally my disdain for TPMS couldn't get any worse and I wish manufacturers would use the current honda method of comparing wheel speeds but what can ya do.
