Happy New Year to all,

Just bought the Orange TPMS Model P409 off Amazon for $110 USD for those interested in such kit. It appears to be identical (knock-off perhaps or other way round for the TyreSure which costs lops more).

The valves themselves however do not have long enough threaded area to fit completely through my current SE 15" and 16" wheels (and the company did not answer emails ref longer ones being available for purchase) however the valves do have plenty of thread for mounting on my Saturn (17" and 18" rims) which will be mounted up once the current rubber is melted off the SE wheels.

Hi Mike, have you had a chance to review these in use yet?

Strangely I was comparing the two brands and did a Google search and ended up here, I'd have never considered searching TLF for this .

Are you a full member Andy? If you decide to get Tyresure, remember you'll get 10% off in the TLF shop

Hi Andy,

No, they are mounted on the Saturn wheels and I have yet to tire them and mount up as I am still trying to wear out the Proxes 4's on the original smaller wheels that came with the car's purchase. Once off I will then put winter tiring on them so I can use it during colder seasons. These wheels are too thick to mount them without grinding out the inside of the wheels hole so mounted on the yet to be used Saturn wheels, which they do fit will. I will come back at some point to do the critique once they have been in use for a while, but I reiterate, they appear to be identical to the Tyresure, at least the packaging and display unit, and, were certainly lots cheaper off Amazon...

Sorry Bibs, I do not want to cut into your sales but they were significantly less money when I purchased mine and isn't that the goal?
