Can Additional Sensors Be Added to Tire Pressure Monitoring System for 8 Tires
Question:
I would like info on tire pressure monitors. They come in 4 or 6 sensors, but I have 8 wheels. Can I buy extra sensors?

You can absolutely add sensors for a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) to monitor 8 tires on your RV. There are two options for a TPMS I recommend:
- TireMinder Smart TPMS for RVs - Signal Booster - 6 Tire Sensors # TPMS-APP-6 with Brass Tire Sensors for TireMinder TPMS - Qty 2 # TM-2Brass
- TST TPMS for RVs - Color Display - Signal Booster - 6 Flow Through Tire Sensors # TST-507-FT-6-C with Flow Through Tire Sensors for TST TPMS - Qty 2 # TST-507-FT-S2
Each of these are great systems, with the difference being the Smart TPMS uses an app on your smartphone - which needs to have Bluetooth 4.0 iOS7+ (Apple) or KitKat 4.4+ (Android) - while the TST uses an independent monitor which you can mount on either your window or dash.
I have added links to video reviews of both systems for you to check out as well.
