    I've had mine for a few years and they have been great. Super easy to put on (a few seconds a wheel) and easy to take off with the tool (a few seconds a wheel) Keep the tool in your truck though.

    I've learned that my TPMS doesn't update immediately - you gotta roll around a bit and it catches up.

    When I'm airing up my own tires, the truck is off so TPMS doesn't do me any good anyway.

    I have a Harbor Fright compressor and their basic hose set. Nothing fancy, and runs a nail gun pretty well too.

    as encouraging as i want this to sound, it's confusing to me. i get the 333 # over empty. wouldn't that get subtracted from 1150 #? then i seem to be 817 # Under GVW. (5600 - 4783 = 817) the 5600 is Toyota door sticker number/ the 1150 is Toyota door sticker number on the tire sticker.

    any question how i am confused???

    I've been using this one for a little over 4 years and highly recommended it. Only had to replace the batteries once. Backlit display is a nice bonus.

    Just picked up my new Tacoma this week, put new wheels and tires on it today and have some vibration, hoping discount tire can balance them out

    Look for a tire shop that offers "road force balancing." I'm not an advocate for Discount Tire, despite them being a sponsor on here, as one of their "floor jack jockeys" caused several thousands in damage to one of my cars a few years ago. Their tires prices are cheap, but so is their quality of service. Many have had issues with Discount Tire improperly balancing tires on here including me.

    Have you looked into RoadMaster Active Suspension? I have had mine for 3 years now. Been very happy with the performance.

    Many new tacos have flat rear springs even with nothing in the bed and no gas. It’s not as horrific as the gear ratios toyota puts in the automatic transmission, but definitely not one of their strong points. Your numbers look fine. Your springs look like, well toyota springs. I love my OME medium dekars, and it’s hard to get closer to OEM than OME!
