A tire pressure monitor arranged on a conventional wheel with a visual display viewable from the exterior of the wheel when it is stationary. The display typically presents a numerical indication of tire pressure. The electronic components for the display are housed within an enclosure mounted to the disk of the wheel. An air duct leads through the rim of the wheel to the enclosure for sampling interior tire pressure.
