Re: A couple of TPMS questions

1. Is it possible to have 2 sets of wheels/tires with each having a set of TPMS in them?
2. Would I have a problem with the having 8 TPMS sensors in close proximity to the truck? (the set that is off the truck would be stored in the garage)
3. Does the degree of TPMS matter when getting aftermarket wheels?
4. Would it be a problem if I DONT get sensors for the 22" wheels? (just to save a few buck not buying them)

Lots of posts on this already. Short answer is you can only have 4 programmed in at one time.

Front Susp: Stock coilovers, 4" lift ( http://www.tundrasolutions.com/forum...6-4-inch-lift/), just swapped extra spacers for Bilstein 5100s on lowest setting, wheel well height still 41.5."
Rear Susp: ProComp ES3000 #326510 (2.25" taller than stock), 1.25" blocks plus PRG mini-pack ( http://www.tundrasolutions.com/forum...and-new-truck/) gives 2.25" total lift, parking brake cable bracket spacers, wheel well height 43."
Front diff and rear ds drop; trailer hitch electrical harness tucked up above bumper.
After 20K miles swapped 305/65/18 BFG AT for 285/75/18 Toyo AT, still on stock 18x8x60 offset TRD wheels, about 1/8" clearance to sway bar. Like the extra height but miss the width. Next time either 305/70/18 or 35x12.50/18.
Added 5th 285/75/18 Toyo AT as spare. Foam pad above spare to help with bed bounce.
Bed Bounce: Stiffer E-tires are worse than stock P-metric; biggest improvement from PRG mini-pack, slight improvement from shocks and foam pad above spare. Still a stiff ride but tolerable now.
Best things about this truck: 5.7 and transmission, interior size and comfort, very quiet at high speed.
Worst things about this truck: bed bounce, no VSC in 4wd, mileage sucks above 70.
