Tirewise: Tire Pressure at a Glance

Richard Deloach

CA (PRWEB) March 23, 2005 --

Are you driving under pressure? Properly inflated tires not only save lives, they reduce tire wear and increase fuel economy.

TireWise precision tire pressure monitors make it easy for drivers to check tire pressure at a glance—without tools.

Simply remove the valve-stem caps from each tire and firmly tighten the pressure monitors onto each valve stem. When installed, they will instantly indicate the tire’s pressure status, which is viewable through the clear window display. Green indicates the pressure is correct and red alerts the driver of a tire that is under-inflated by as little as 10 percent.

TireWise monitors are available for specific tire pressures from 26- to 120-psi (proper psi is shown on tire sidewall). The hexagonal Lexan® design allows tightening with a wrench to 10- to 12-foot pounds, making them less susceptible to theft.

The American-made monitors are hermetically sealed to be air and watertight and carry a three-year unconditional guarantee on performance and accuracy.

The monitors available in several attractive finishes including chrome, red, blue, green, gold and black to complement any wheel. Fits passenger vehicles, SUVs, trucks, trailers, motorcycles, ATVs, RVs and commercial vehicles.

Suggested retail for a set of four monitors is $19.95 for passenger vehicles, and less than $7.50 per tire for commercial vehicles and RVs.
