Default TPMS works!

Well obviously it works the only bad thing to say about this I had to find this because I had a nail in the tire, I checked the pressure and it was 26 psi and I reset the MMI at 32, so around 6 psi loss is when you get the warning, I repair the tire, tiny little hole but still a bummer because I always have the feeling my tire is not rated anymore for max speed.

Yeah, and while removing/mounting the tire to patch, they always end up nicking or scratching your rim... burns my azz!
