I use the Tire Minder system for both truck and trailer. It also monitors temperature. Gave me lot of peace of mind when we drive across country and back during some very hot weather and running over some unseen potholes I would have thought a tire was blowing out. Saved me from wasting time pulling over to check tires.

We have used the EEZTire TPMS with the antitheft feature for 14 months now. No issues other than the occasional temporary drop of a signal from tire.

I've used the Dill TPMS in both of my FW's, they are extremely accurate and reliable.
There are many models available so you can pick the one that best fits your needs and budget. They are mounted inside the tires and I know that many don't like that because they don't want to break down tires to have it installed. If you research exterior sensors you will find that in certain conditions they can be quite inaccurate as they are subject to the ambient environment. The signal strength was sufficient to always get valid readings until I went to 14 ply tires. I then had to install a transceiver to boost the signal, something you'd expect with 14 ply tires.
Its alerted me twice to tire problems, 1st was a over pressure condition, and the 2nd was when I lost the tread and the air started leaking out. Those occurred when I was running the china bomb 10 ply's.

I have been using TireMinder TM-77 for a year now and I have no complaints. I have the booster inside the forward compartment with the FW batteries and I just use the gator clamps to attach to one of the batteries when I'm towing. I did have to put metal stems on the tires which cost about $80 for parts and labor. I have the flow through stems, but I have been hesitant to put them on for fear of how far they will stick out past the tire. This concerns me with hitting hitting debri or a curb and snapping them off. I like the idea of the flow through stems, but I may have to get shorter metal stems (if possible) before adding the flow through stems.

Did you get this one or similar and how did it work out for you? I just don't have the cash for a TST or similar brands.
