Wheel Sensor
Did all 1996 Corvette Coupes come with the low tire pressure wheel sensor or was it optional? Also does anyone know how to look at tell if I do have the sensor in my wheels?

On this subject, nothing is more exicting than having a front sensor come apart inside your tire at 100+mph!

That exact thing happened to me in my 95 this past spring only it was the RR one. Was doing just over 100 on a road course and the centripital force broke the band and the thing just smashed into a hundred peices.
It sounded really good on the drive home. Every time I slowed for traffic or a stop light it sounded like a handfull of nuts & bolts were rattling around inside the wheel.
