I ran a small class C for 12 years with no TPMS system and had one tire failure in those 12 years, an inner dually which was punctured by a nail when we could not avoid a chunk of lumber in the road. Were we lucky with the tires? Maybe. That said I do intend to install a TPMS on this class A before we head out later this summer for an extended trip to the Rockies. The ACE we now own is always within a few pounds of max load so TPMS is just another safety item that will make me feel more comfortable heading down the highways in the summer heat.
As an aside in the Class C Gulfstream I always checked the tires in the morning before heading out and carried a tire bat and thumped them at rest stops a couple times a day. Learned that from my grandfather who was an old teamster.
