[QUOTE="SilverBolt, post: 15860, member: 765"] Very strange that Ford's system uses a predetermined PSI. With Toyota, VW, and BMW it is based on a difference in pressure. All three have a "reset" button that you press once you have set your tires to the pressure you want. If it drops below that pressure it trips the light. The light cannot be reset until all tires have the correct pressure. How does Ford know what tires you may replace the stock tires with? I always use the chaulk test to determine the correct pressure for a tire. I have run a lot of BFG A/T's on past rigs and not once gone over 38psi. Going to be interesting to watch the tire wear. BMW & VW have a two channel system so you can have two sets of wheels and tires for the car. Toyota is a pain in that if you change a sensor you have to go to the dealer with the serial number off of the new sensor so they can key it into the system. It won't read it without being keyed in.
