New tire and TPMS

Put some new tires on our new truck this week. Upgraded the factory P tires to a set of LT's for a little more carrying capacity. With our new fifth wheel I am right at gvw with a good load on the rear axle. Truck only had 3400 miles on it so I asked the tire manager if he could give me a little on the take offs. He took them for $50 each so a $200 credit against an almost $800 bill came out pretty good.

Didn't know how the TPMS would react to the new air pressure setting (65psi) against the old setting of 44psi but there is no problems at all. In fact the DIC when toggled to the TPMS screen shows all tires at 65. This new generation of TPMS system is a great improvement over the one of a few years ago.
