What to Do When Changing Rims on a Car with Original Tire Pressure Monitoring?

[LaAngelina]

Simply transfer the tire pressure monitoring sensors to the new rims and then reset them. Changing rims has minimal impact on the tire pressure monitoring system. Below are detailed explanations of tire pressure monitoring: 1. Direct Tire Pressure Monitoring: This system uses pressure sensors installed in each tire to directly measure the tire pressure. The pressure information is transmitted wirelessly from inside the tire to a central receiver module, which then displays the data for each tire. The system automatically alerts the driver when the tire pressure is too low or if there is a leak. 2. Indirect Tire Pressure Monitoring: This system works by detecting when the pressure in a tire decreases, causing the vehicle's weight to reduce the rolling radius of that tire, which in turn makes it rotate faster than the other tires. By comparing the rotational speed differences between the tires, the system can monitor tire pressure. Indirect tire pressure monitoring systems essentially rely on calculating the rolling radius of the tires to monitor pressure.
