Chances are your tires actually DO have radio emitters in them - tire pressure sensors are wireless and send their measurements out on the 433 MHz band.

Wow, didn't know they were UHF, figured it would be some GHz nonsense... Now I kinda want to build a tyre pressure sensor receiver.

A cool use for that would be a warning screen in your garage if you pull in with low tire pressure.

I use 433 MHz buttons, switches and sensors for my smart home stuff, so I have a receiver (generic DVB-T SDR dongle) listening, and I can see all the tire pressure signals that passing cars send out.

I did this to my neighbor, as a favor for him. Cause what are buddies for?

Update: my neighbor sent a lawyer after me.

Don't do this. My car tire went flat. These liars.

[-] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Nar mate, that's just the poisonous 5G gas escaping the tyre. The tyres are supposed to be flat on the bottom: more contact patch on the road = more grip!

This is like a sovereign citizen idea.

the tire is now a eunuch

I wish more people would do this to their tires, and never replace them.
