TPMS or not to TPMS for autox

I'd like to get a 2nd set of wheels for autox...do I have to have the TPMS sensors? Can't I just run w/o them? I have 07 E90...Thanks!

Not if you don't mind the lamp. You may want to look into the Macht Schnell TPMS Emulator if you plan to use multiple set of wheels for the track:

I'd say leave the TPMS out

It's not like you'll be running these all the time

You can always check tire pressure between sessions

The light shouldn't be a major bother while Auto-Xing anyways
