I am planning to leave the TPMS in the current stock wheels, just tomorrow getting the winter tires mounted. In the future I will buy a set of slightly used take off RAV4 alloy wheels with tires and TPMS. I plan to run TPMS, the original topic of the thread was for me to ask about TPMS. So...

So tomorrow I am getting some winter tires mounted on my 2021 RAV4 LE steel wheels. In the next few months I may buy a set of RAV4 alloy takeoff wheels. So in the future I may swap out the steel wheel / winter tire set for the new set I plan to buy in the next few months. Basically run the...

do the serial numbers for the tpms need to be entered into the ecu?

Hi I have a 2021 Toyota RAV4. I am getting a second set of steel wheels to mount snow tires for the winter. Do I need to purchase TPMS? What happens if I don't? Will the dash light come on? Just curious what happens to a 2021 RAV4 with the absence of TPMS sensors? Thanks

Hello I just bout a new RAV4 and the stock tires are Toyo A38 Open Country. Are they any good? I looked online and didn't see much about them. Thanks!

Hello Are there any trends that show that gas prices are more expensive on certain days during the week? A co worker told me that certain days of the week are more expensive. I haven't noticed it and I was wondering in anyone knew if this is true and if so which days? For reference I am in...

thanks then I guess I will stick with the stock size which is 205/55R16

the 195/65r15 and 195/60r16 are both 7.7" wide so I don't see a need to buy a set of 15" wheels, yes the tires are a bit cheaper but not worth the cost of a second set of wheels etc.

well say it is the same tire model/tread pattern and rubber compound? I am talking snows vs snows, same tire just different sizes with 1 being .4" (5%) narrower?

forget what I said about 185/60r16, they don't make snow tires in this size

thanks but the 195/65r15 is the same with as the 195/60r16 and this way I can use my current wheels. what might be better is to run 185/60r16 which are even narrower.

not sure they make that size? they make a 185/60R16 which is 10% narrower compared to the 205/55-16. The 185/65/16 is not listed on this chart?

The 195/65-16 is 5% narrower and 1.2% taller compared to the 205/55-16. Is 5% narrower enough to make a difference?

sorry there seems to be some confusion or typos. we are talking 16" wheels here, I see mentions of 15"

mine are 16" not 15"
