Exclamation A question for those riding without TPMS

I'm buying some 19" Tork Revo wheels, they already have the tires mounted and balanced. I was wondering if it's worth the trouble to have the TPMS installed.

My question is: How annoying is the beeping from not having the tmps? Is it like 1 beep per day or several beeps?

Does anyone know if the TPMS will even fit on a Tork Revo?


Any info is appreciated.

No beeping. Just a blinking light on the dash.

No TPMS with my winter set. The blinking light reminds me that I have my winter tires on . . . go easy!

Someone posted a very useful DIY on how to eliminate the blinking light . . . I believe it involved placing a black dot sticker in just the right spot.

If I get any beeps, it's one or two right when I start the car. The light stays on solid, no blinking (never has). It's at the point where I don't even notice it anymore.

It doesn't come on until about 10 minutes worth of driving, then it decides to beep and flash at me for the duration of my trip. You get used to it after a few days.
