I check pressure every other week but should purchase the valve pressure monitor though!

Anyone up for a group buy of the valve pressure monitors out of Melbourne?

Hi You don't need the TPMS or valve sensors , but have a set if you want 'em !!:-) The ABS senses wheel rotation on our X5's.... I went to a tyre shop (I would say Fairly reputable) and they said the Vredsteins were in their opinion only worth what you pay for them.... they didn't stock them so maybe that's why... so I am still deciding on which tyres I can get a good deal on Good Year F1 Non RFT for about the same price as the Vredsteins... up from there are Bridgestones, Dunlops , Michelins and Pirellis.. Michelins will get approx. 20% better wear than others due to their harder compound... The tyre shop also found an issue with one of my 227M rims and I am getting a replacement from BMW as it was damaged in transit .... so I have a while to make my mind up...
