I have TPMS on two of my vehicles and it has saved me twice.
Any recommendations for aftermarket on an o6 TJ?

My eyes must not be that good. I can't tell the difference between 16 and 33...
I bet @Zorba knows the best computer to think about tire pressures for you
If I wanted those, I would've bought a JK.
WOW!!! This Jeep is not my daily driver. Sometimes it sits for several weeks before I drive it. I am simply looking for a way to see if the tires are up to air without pulling in the garage and checking pressures.
Losing a bead 14-16!! I don't worry about that at like 6-8psi

Why would your tires ever be at 33?
It's not that complicated. You can use a tire gauge without ever moving the vehicle.
Checking tire pressure with a gauge is more than likely the only physical (bending) exercises many get.
It’s not hard

Most of the after market systems are not super accurate, their main purpose is to alert you that there is a problem or a sudden change in pressure so you can pull over hopefully before damage happens. To get precise PSI you still need to unscrew them and use a gauge. Not that you can't use them for a quick check before driving as long as you have figured out the discrepancy which can vary by a few lbs between different sensors.
Another issue is valve stems, steel stems are recommended due to the extra weight of the sensor unless you go with internal sensors. I have some steel stems I need to install on my Ravines so I can add sensors for flat towing. That's where TPMS really comes in, to alert you of a problem with the towed vehicle which otherwise could go undetected for miles with catastrophic results.

Recommended by who? Spinal surgeons?

What is you deal? I have a stock 2006 TJ with STOCK WHEELS and tires The recommended tire pressure is 33 PSI. WTF!!!
sofar it does. But my RV is only 22'. Best bet is got to Amazon, read the reviews, and try it. If it doesn't work return it.
