Abstract
A method and system for indirect tire pressure monitoring of tires of a vehicle is described. The method may include providing a tire classification database indicating at least one classified tire type. The method may also include determining a vehicle tire type for the vehicle on the basis of vehicle data in including information on at least one tire currently used with the vehicle, and determining whether the vehicle tire type can be associated to one of the at least one classified tire type. The method may also include, in the case an association is determined, monitoring tire pressure according to the associated classified tire type.
