You might have the tires rebalanced with the wheel simulators and sensors on the rims.

When I was doing research for my TPMS, I read review comments from others, that several different type of systems would throw the tires out of balance, including valve stem extensions.

I don't believe there is any TPMS that is better than others, it's pretty much personal preference on the system that meets your TV/TT configuration.

Regardless of my failure, I would go with the TST 507 again. That said, I do have a question for those of you with a 507. Do you have any issues with the power plug not staying in the head unit? The charger I got has a tip about 1/2in long but only goes in about half that and will fall out quite easily. Fortunately it holds a charge for several days.
Call TST about the power plug. I had a few questions for them, very pleasant to talk to and very helpful.

You would have to re-balance the tires and they stick out quite a ways. I remove the anti-theft from mine and just screw the sensors on because they are smaller and lighter that way.

I've had custom Rams head valve stem caps for years and nobody ever messed with them, and these look the same so nobody has ever taken one.
