Any one using crossfire or cat's eye tire equilizer systems

Thinking about installing one of these systems. Any one have experience with these?

I had Crossfires on my 1999 Chieftain and on my 2008 Tour. They worked great never leaked and ensured that the duals were the same pressure. I hope to put them on my 2013 Via.

I had them on my class C and they worked great for over 15k miles until I sold it. I need to order for the Journey real duals. Winnebago did a good job on the extensions to fill each, but I like the cats eye feature to check air pressure.

Sir...
I have the cat eye system on the rear duals of my diesel pusher.

They work very well, fill both tires at the same time and by visual glance you can tell if you are having any deflation issues.

Good system and recommend them.

I also have Crossfires on my Destination. Had them on the 99 Adventurer as well. Easy to see if tire is over or under inflated, east to fill and will work with most TPMS. The Crossfire has an automatic valve so if one of the duals has a major air loss it will shut the good tire off so it does not go flat also.

Cat's Eye's here. No problems, no leaks. Just get the model that fits your wheel diameter and air pressure rating. Mine are for the 22.5" rims and 90 psi although I have 19.5" rims. That's the only model that the service center had in stock and I wanted them installed right away so I went with them. They work great.

Cat's Eyes on my duals as well......10 years old and no problems.

9R22.5 Michelins tires.
100psi Cat's Eyes.....(eye begins to open if pressure drops to 96 psi...fully open at 90 psi).

I also have Crossfires on my Journey. They provide a real advantage when you circle check your vehicle with an accurate visual representation on tire pressure. Have had absolutely no problems with them - wish I could have said that about the TPMS unit I had previously.
