   Couple things - I have been using a TPMS for years, did a review on it.  EEZ Go on the two TT tires, works great.  I inflate to maximum on trailer tires.

	I checked and the tires that are on my RP189 are Load rating E and max pressure 80 psi cold. 80 seems a bit high to me? From what I have read you should inflate to max psi. My TPMS is good to 87 psi max. I am thinking maybe 70 to 75 psi would be okay. Any thoughts?

	I didn't see anywhere on the forum where anyone was using a TPMS. With a single axle trailer I would think a flat tire could be a disaster. I got a Tymate system off Amazon.....cost $70. It measures temperature and air pressure. You can set the high pressure alarm, low pressure alarm, and high temperature alarm. It also has a fast leakage alert. In the info it says these aren't for trailers I guess because of the distance from the tires but in reviews a lot of folks said they worked fine on trailers. At any rate I'm going to try it and see if it works. If it does I think it is worth it as an extra measure of safety.
