Vehicle tire monitoring system and method

A multi-tire vehicle tire monitoring system includes a plurality of tire monitoring units (10) mounted to measure at least one measured tire parameter of a respective tire (52, 54) on a vehicle (48, 50) and transmit measured tire parameter data responsive to the tire parameter measurement. The system further includes antennae (32A, 32B, 32C) for receiving the measured tire parameter data from tire monitoring units within a respectively assigned zone of tires of the vehicle, each zone encompassing a plurality of tires, and communicating the received measured tire parameter data to a data processing unit. Each antenna is fixedly mounted in an operable spatial relationship to a respective assigned zone of tires. A display (38) may be operatively coupled to the vehicle data processing unit to visually indicate to a user a status of measured tire parameters of tires by zone.
