The sensors for the Solar TireMinder TPMS # TPMS-TRAILER must come directly from TireMinder.

The only time you'll need to change out your tire stems to use the TireMinder TPMS for Dual Axle Trailers # TPMS-TRAILER is if they are in bad shape and need to be changed out anyways. I reached out to my contact at TireMinder and he said that the cap sensors in this kit only weigh in at 0.3oz so they are light enough they don't warrant metal valve stems.
He did say that some of their other kits use heavier sensors (standard is 0.5oz and flow-through are 0.7oz) and for those it is recommended... view full answer...
Tireminder makes a TPMS setup for single axle trailers like yours with the part # TPMS-TRL-2 which comes with just two sensors like you'd only need, or if you preferred the kit that comes with 4 sensors that would work as well part # TPMS-TRAILER. You'd just not use the two extra sensors. They could be kept as spare parts for future use. view full answer...

It sounds like you don't really want to replace your tires but still want peace of mind while traveling which I'm sure anyone can understand. I can't promise you they won't fail but if cared for properly these chances are reduced. That said, anything can happen not matter the tire manufacturer so what I recommend is that you have the ability to monitor the tires while traveling so you can be alerted to potential blowouts and get to the side of the road to remedy the issue. This is where... view full answer...
