Anyone interested in a Group Buy - aftermarket Direct TPMS system?

Do the tyre pressures and temperature change to the point where you need to know every few seconds? There is your question.

The tyre pressure and temperature can change in seconds, I rarely look at my TPMS and if a tyre falls outside the parameters that I set it alerts me with flashing and an alarm. This allows me to make an educated decision as to what do, ie a slower leak I can slow down and get off the highway to a safe place or if it's a fast leak I can pull over before a tyre is damaged.

Tyres are all you have keeping you on the road.

Thank you all for your feedback. I do agree that the indirect TPMS that came with the car may be good enough and hence there is no need for a direct TPMS system. However in my case it did not alert me in time for a slow puncture, but perhaps I must have forgotten to reset it after filling air.
I really wish I could retrofit an OEM TPMS to make it display the readings via the MFD. However since that is proving too difficult, I think I'll bite the bullet and purchase the aftermarket one in the next few days.

I agree with Maverick regarding the comment about 'tyres are all your have keeping you on the road', and for me and my wife, any tool which provides guidance to make a more informed decision is worth looking at. But I do agree that for some this maybe an overkill.
