Does anyone use Ronal's SmartTire pressure sensor system?
Curious if this is a good investment, since many have discussed TT's sensitivity to tire pressure changes.

I have the SmarTire system in my A4. . .
First, the SmarTire system is not Ronal's, they just offer it with their wheels. You can visit SmarTire's website by <a href="http://www.smartire.com">clicking here</a>
As far as being worth it, I think it's a great investment. You might be wise to wait until June, as SmarTire is rumored to be releasing version 2 with a smaller display unit ('bout time) and new, lighter, quicker sensors. The new system will check stats every 6 seconds, vs. the current 30, and incorporates the valve stem unlike the system out now. The biggest benefit of the new system to a TT would be the new control/display. I had a hard time finding a good place in the A4 for it, couldn't imagine where I'd stick it in the TT.
When my 225 TTC arrives, I'll likely move my A4's system to our , eh em, Explorer.
