What Type of Tire Minder Sensors Do I Need?
Question:
I have a 2018 RV on Mercedes 3500 chassis with Alcoa Aluma Brite wheels. Does it matter which sensor aluminum or brass that I get?? Pretty sure the valve stems are steel...

According to Tire Minder's website you will only need aluminum sensors like the item # TM-2ALUM if you're towing a car or light truck with built-in TPMS that has aluminum valve stems. For your 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 I recommend the TireMinder i10 TPMS for RVs and Trailers w/ Signal Booster - 4 Tire Sensors item # TM89FR. The four Brass, waterproof and dustproof sensors let you monitor each tire individually. The system lets you use the monitor or an app on your smartphone as the screen.
