Replying to: esfoad (May 17, 2006 8:52 am) I have yet to fit my aftermarket wheels since I am trading cars. But I'll have a 2006 Coupe soon and will be putting the wider wheels/tires on. Since no monitors are installed in the aftermarket wheels, I'll let the board know if my light comes on or not. Roll

Replying to: rollbar (May 18, 2006 9:33 am) What was the outcome of installing the aftermarket wheels without the monitors. Does the light come on? I've been switching my monitors back and forth between my winter and summer wheels, and I was going to buy a second set ($400)  but may not, depending on your results. Thanks RG

Replying to: raizelgs (Jul 31, 2006 12:44 pm) The good news is that it is a yellow/amber light and so blends in with the other lights on the dash. It blinks off and on for a minute or two and then glows steadily. Frankly, I notice it occasionally when I start and it's blinking but that's about it. It's sits over to the left side and is out of my line of sight, which helps too. So, it's really not a problem. As for the sensors, they would not fit either of my choices for summer wear. I returned them to the dealer. Roll

Replying to: texag64 (Sep 07, 2006 5:19 pm)  . If snow is not an issue for you, perhaps you should look into summer tires, as they may provide both wet and dry traction superior to all-season tires. The Tire Rack has favorable reviews of the Avon Tech 550 tires. I was also told by the Tire Rack rep that I should order OEM size tires, as larger tires might drive the VDC crazy and cause hydroplaning problems (plausible enough to be possible, but I'm skeptical). Happy shopping! |

Replying to: texag64 (Sep 07, 2006 5:19 pm) I switched to Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 1K miles ago and love them. They seem a bit noiser, and my fuel economy has gone down 1 mpg, but the grip and handling is outstanding rain or shine. I'm not seeing the "Slip" light nearly as often anymore. They also have a much higher treadwear rating than the RS-A's (not that it matters any since each manufacturer sets their own "standard"), so hopefully they'll last longer. The Avon's are also highly recommended by TireRack customers. After considering mounting/balancing/shipping/road hazard etc. costs, I had the Michelins installed at Costco ($60 off coupon at the time) since they were only a few bucks more than Avon's from TireRack. |
