Canadian model BRZ has no TPMS - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Not sure if anyone mentioned that before.
I am a Canadian BRZ owner and just change my set of rim, and I can confirm that BRZ has NO TPMS sensor.
However Canadian FRS has TPMS on the rim on pressure valve.

Hope that helps if BRZ owner need a new set of RIM, you can save some $$ for the TPMS.

You are indeed correct.

I wish the US BRZ didn't come with TPMS.

No they can't read them. I have The FRS wheels with TPMS on my BRZ right now and it doesn't read anything. I should have just taken the TPMS stem sensors and sold them. Oh well.

I am the same using FRS wheels on my BRZ, but my friend said if I remove the TPMS from wheel it will be broken and cannot be reinstall to another wheel.

I thought all new cars had to have them, but I just checked - it isn't law here yet.http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/roadsafety/roadsafety-1158.htm

Glad they don't have them, I guess if I had stock rims and tires only and never mounted snows maybe they would have some utility.

Its not like checking tire pressures is a chore.

100% not true, my stock sensors are currently mounted in my RPF1's without a single issue.
