Tire pressure sensors are becoming the fastest-growing product in the automotive aftermarket, according to a Frost & Sullivan Inc. Demand for tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensors is expected to triple by 2018-20, Frost & Sullivan's Oindrila Bhar said, as TPMS sensors installed since the 2007 U. S.
