Hi Guys,
I have a spare TPMS from the batch I imported for a few guys. I am just trying to cover the cost of the unit and the import duties which they smoked me, so R2000 and its yours.
It is the same as the link below...

It is with me in DBN so can send it off to you same day.
Cheers
Gary

Yeah the sensors will fit, they go in the rim behind the valve, basically sits in the center part of the rim away from the tyre.

Pull the tyre off and see if the sensor will clear, I think it will.

Run flat bands are. Proper run flats are very expensive

Proper run flat tyres are cool, especially for a ladies car at least they dont have to stop in dodgy areas or anything...

Agreed, rather buy lighter tyres and fit this TPMS and it will warn you if you have a leak

this would be really interesting to use to learn how the cars handling changes are linked to pressure/temperature changes within the tyre!
