Hi All,

I have a 2018 Elite with 19000 miles (we live and play in a small radius from home and are on an island.) Took delivery of our Elite around April 2018.

The stock Turanzas are down to 4/32 and the shoulder treads look knarly, stock tires are definitely not very grippy in the wet so will be replacing the oem tires soon.

I read certain places that the TPMS should last 7-10 years, some other places say 5-10 years. I'm pretty much at year 5 and I don't know if I should replace the TPMS sensors with new ones or reuse them. I don't want to reuse them and a year or 2 later they go out, then that means double the labor just to change out the sensors. It's likely the replacement tires will give us maybe 4 years of usage until next set of tires.

Suggestions? Thoughts? What would you do or what have you done in similar situation?

Thanks!

It's just a single data point, I've been running a long-term test on my 2009 Honda Fit. The TPMS sensors on it are still original (14 years). I plan on replacing them when I replace the tires this time, ~Fall of 2023 (15 years). My guess is high quality sensors with high quality Japanese Li-Ion batteries that came with our vehicles likely last >10 years.
