    Soft8 hole style alloys and vibration

    It may be worth having them balanced somewhere different than where you had them originally balanced? May also be beneficial to experiment with the stick on wheel weights. Cut a square in half and add it....test drive ect. I hope you get it dialed in, good luck sir.

    UPDATE: Took the Tahoe for its first long drive since installing the TPMS Delete. 140 mile round trip and within the first 30 miles my "Check Tire System Monitor" message came on. After driving another 5 miles it went back off. This happened once more on the trip back home, I checked the DIC and...

    Rim load rating calculation?

    Thanks man, that really does make me feel a bit better. I was all sold with weeks of searching and then I stumbled upon that picture. Those are made by Fuel, the others I was looking at are made by Method. Method even has a video bragging about how theirs are not weakened by the extra milling...

    Rim load rating calculation?

    Is it normal for a wheel to have this much cut out of the inside? I've been comparing two companies and this one is different in the fact that it has so much material cut out from the back side compared to the other brand.

    Bookmarked! and thank you! I had a spare aluminum box but was afraid to use it in fear that the antenna couldn't transmit through it. I just nabbed a cheapy plastic one off of Amazon...

    ...and here she is in all her glory, open and exposed..;) (now I feel all dirty inside).. The 3D printing is even more evident, one of the screw barrels fell off when taking out the screws. I would have been more impressed if there was shrink tubing on the exposed wires, but at least there...

    Pictures of the inside of this magic box coming soon. I've asked the seller if I could run it without the internal battery source and he gave me the go ahead. This confirms that the battery isn't needed for retaining any programmed memory, very good news! Id like to also say this seller has...

    Testing.. Took truck for a 10 mile drive without the TPMS delete box. The "Check Tire Monitoring System" light came back on. Plugged the box back in (without re-pairing) and took it for another spin. The "Check Tire Monitoring System" light went off in a matter of minutes. This is looking good...

    You're probably right but it takes someone who knows how to build and then program the circuitry not only to transmit a reoccurring 315MHz signal but to transmit one with the correct data packets as well. $100 bucks hurts, Ill be brewing my own coffee for awhile...

    Ok, I haven't installed it in its final configuration yet, so until I do the unit will ride on the transmission hump plugged into the usb outlet until I know it works reliably. I plugged it in and followed the instructions and it worked! Just like that all my tires are reading 35 psi. Most...

    IT'S HERE! Record fast shipping from Canada! 3D printed box with Exact-o blade trimmed corners and edges. Definitely seems to be of the home-grown/manufactured variety but Im optimistic! Comes shipped in a padded envelope with instructions and very nice USB cord. Cant wait to try it out!
