Tire pressure sensor for extra rim?
Hello all, I just leased a 2013 C250 sport plus. Picking it up on Friday. However, I live in NY and need to drive it in winters. I am thinking of purchasing a winter wheel/tire setup from tirerack.com. But the tire pressure monitor for the setup costs extra $250. Do I really need them? I can live with the warning dash light if I don't absolutely need them.

Another round of ICE
Agree that TPMS is helpful, but not required. It would let you know of a slow leak before it becomes painfully obvious.
BTW, hope you're choosing your winter tires well! Go right past the so-called "performance winter" tires, which excel at neither, and look at their studless winter, such as Blizzak WS70 (1st) or Michelin X-Ice (2nd)
