Hi.

Wal Mart charges 7 bucks per rotation per tire here for cars with TPMS, and 2 bucks for cars without it.

I dont really care if my sensor lights up, I am more than capable of checking my tire pressure by myself like a big boy (some modern features are great but does anyone in human civilization appreciate this stupid feature?)

Is this the only consequence of ignoring the tpms on tire rotations? i want to save the 20 dollar difference.

Firestone, Costco, Discount/America's Tire do not charge for TPMS service/reprogram with balance and rotation(new tire install re-program yes).

I have rotated and cross rotated my tires 7 times and the TPMS needed no re-set or reprogram.


Only time the system re-set was when my tire was punctured and went low a couple of times at elevation due to increased pressure. After the fill and/or fix, when the wheel warmed up the light went off.

Thanks guys.

I just called firestone and they want 25 bucks for a tire rotation, so I guess it doesn't matter in the end. I'm not beating that.

I'll be buying the equipment and doing it myself next time.

THanks.

Firestone or Discount should sell you a lifetime balance and rotation with a coupon for less than $50.
