What are you charging to rotate tires with TPM's? Mount and balance with TPM's? A few dealers in our area are charging big money to rotate and reset TPM system. And, most are charging extra to mount and balance with TPM's. Yet others are charging no extra fees. With all cars having TPM's in a few years, are we looking at $80 to rotate and $25 a tire to mount and balance?

yep, and GM is going all TPS by 07. And you guys will have ALL the biz since the independants won't have tech info.

We will have all the business? Those independents ALREADY have the technology and the info. There universal TPM reset tools work for most makes and models. Does our tool do that? Or, for us to compete do we need to buy the same tool the other guy is using. According to Kent-Moore, our tool is GM specific.

I apologize I don't have the tech info on the tool. But if you have thee time check out article in "tire review" an independant tire shop mag. Oct. 05 vol#105 No#10.
The private dealer is hurtin for certain, at least with regard to servicing TPMS tires. You can see it online also.
