  • Can Any TPMS System Work With The GM Advanced Towing System On A 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 2500?
  • We do have a potential option for you, however the GM TPMS system you have will not work with any of our systems since they are a closed system, meaning they operate off of their own system. With that being said, I recommend taking a look at the: -TireMinder Smart TPMS for RVs # TPMS-APP-6. This system can monitor tires with a pressure range of 0-232 PSI, and will alert you via Bluetooth of any blowouts, significant pressure change, or if your tires exceed an operating temperature of...
