but once again, i feel this isnt a bad thing because if they did have a tpms, it would have just ben an idiot light on the dash. i want to know more then just when i have a low tire. i wanna see realtime data of what tire is low, how low it is, what the exact tire pressures are, and their temperatures. now if they included a small display on the cluster like some of the higher end gm's do (like the denalli, or the cts-v) then this would be good.

you guys don't like checking tire pressures on your good ole hands and knees?

hopefully you get the wheel balanced after these are installed.

yes, temps change during an event but you can't adjust it anyway until you stop anyway.

You could always get a tire guage and check them once a week.

+1

if the tire pressure system came standard, i don't think we'd be able to buy aftermarket wheels. which would suck for those of use that need winter and summer rubber. well, i guess we could, it jsut wouldn't work with the aftermarket wheels and the idiot light would be on.
