Can the flow-through sensors be installed on car tires, or are they too large?

I have installed 2 of them on the front tires of my Honda CR-V, which I tow behind an RV. I have not had any problems with them after traveling 4500 miles.

Not sure if they fit but I would not recommend these sensors. They continuously drop the TPMS signal and my car randomly shows error messages from different tires. Should have bought OEM sensors.

Good Morning Steel valve stems are ultimately recommended and I would definitely switch over the next time you have tire work performed. That being you can use the smaller Anti Theft (1 inch) on a rubber valve stem, I would not recommend using the Flow Through (2 1/2 inch) on a rubber stem. I do recommend using rubber valve stem supports on your rubber stems. There are 2 types; one that goes over the rubber stem and clips onto the edge of the rim, the other that adheres to the rim and support the rubber stem from the side. You can do a google search for "rubber valve stem support" or email us off our web site and we will gladly send you some pictures of what to look for. The primary issue with rubber stems is where the rubber stems come through the metal rim. With extra wear and vibration the rim can start to cut into the valve stem. You always want to make sure on your walk around to wiggle the rubber stems and listen for air leakage through any stem, particularly where it comes out the rim. Customer Relations EEZ RV PRODUCTS

The ride-on website answers that question. If your sensors are hermetically sealed they should be ok.

For best results it needs to be up so that more than the tires pass the sensor. But it would work on the ground.

Short answer is yes, if they do TPMS.The car ECU needs to be programmed with the sensors ID, for each tire location.I suggest www.tpms-tools.com, for further information.

I really like this product alot. I cant figure out the tire pressure but for my Auto Damage Inspection Business. The vehicle owner and adjuster cannot challenge the tire condition and the gauge must be used on the very inner part of the tire. The digits are huge versus trying to use the old kind that the camera cannot focus on.

As far as I know, no. Every time I change tires the ride on liquid is on the tire not the rim. I have a friend that has a 2014 concours and has not had problems with the tire pressure sensors. He has riden his bike hard. Already three sets of tires

Yes, you can check pressure. I have them on my 2010 HD Ultra Classic and it makes it much easier to check the tire pressure.

single tire, was used to replace a faulty OE sensor, but sold vehicle before installing. Vehicle would have to be reprogrammed after installing. Consider pressure sensors a troublesome techological advance that are more trouble than worse. Suzuki wanted $175 to replace a sensor, entire system was a problem from first day of purchase, Grand Vitara was worse vehicle I have ever owned, so bad in so many ways, glad to see them go. BTW system doesn't monitor the spare tire, stupid engineering, nothing like having a flat and finding out spare is also flat, better to have a digital pressure gage and check tires manually. Unable to shut off dash warning light as anti lock, traction control and pressure monitoring were all tied together.

Yes the tire pressure sensors are in the valve stems not on the wheel bearing it will work if it on either type with or without tire pressure sensors.

If u mean "can u fill tires directly thru the monitors" - then the answer is YES

Yes you can. Its easy to mount and works great. Speedometer will require size of tire to configure the correct distance you travel.

I can't see any reason it wouldn't work. Once wired, the unit automatically displays tire pressures when the car is turned on. The kit also includes a remote button that switches the radio display from radio to tire pressure. I used double stick tape and attached the button over/on my cigarette lighter socket (the button is larger than the socket, so it has a place to grip) but it can be mounted anywhere. Works great.

You will probably need to take it to your mechanic to be installed. The sensor can only be installed from inside the tire and a scanner may need to be used to clear the TPMS light.

Yes, the range of the gage isn't large, just what it needed for most car tires. Easy to read.

3 to 4 times the regular tire cap , make sure to re balance your tires after installation hence one sensor weights around 13 to 15 grams including the secure ring ,.......... But Man ,.... I assure you ,you won't regret it ,.... a real peace of mind especially if you're enjoying driving at high speed ,.... I've been using them for months now and I'm totally satisfied ,....... a delay from now and then in sensor respond or weak up as tyredog describe it but it's OK .
