Interesting our 2006 BMW 530i tire pressure monitoring system monitors the
RPMs of each of the four wheels. When one of the wheel's rpms drops due to a change in rolling radius (relative to the others), it indicates a tire pressure drop and the alarm light comes on.
This is a very practical method for monitoring tire pressure
change since RPMs at each wheel are monitored anyway for ABS.
Surprised other mfgrs do this any differently.
