TPMS Rebuild Kits

Store associate and Customer consulting the TPMS information in the showroom

Vehicles manufactured after 2007 come equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS). This system monitors the air pressure in your tires and alerts you when they become low.

Shop TPMS Sensors

There are two types of TPMS systems: direct or indirect. Direct is the most common and uses sensors in each wheel to communicate to a central vehicle receiver An indirect TPMS determines pressure by estimating a tire's rotational speed.

If you have a direct TPMS, the sensors will need to be rebuilt every time the tire is removed from the wheel due to:

  • Some replaceable parts of the sensor can corrode over time

  • The sealing components become brittle and increase the risk of air loss, causing a low or flat tire

WHAT ARE TPMS REBUILD KITS?

A TPMS rebuild kit contains key replacement parts that keep your TPMS sensor in proper working order. Replacing these wearable parts ensures optimal sensor performance.

Dashborad Display, Receiver and Tire Pressure Sensors and their placement within a vehicle

America's Tire also carries additional sensors that can be placed on your alternate sets of tires and wheels. This is useful if you keep a set of seasonal or competition tires. We also offer standalone TPMS kits for vehicles without original equipment (OE) systems. These contain a dash mounted display and four wheel mounted transmitters compatible with most wheel applications. These kits are perfect for trailers and older vehicles that lack a TPMS.

Adding a TPMS sensor kit to an older vehicle is relatively inexpensive and enhances your safety. It also adds to the vehicle's value.
