I don't know of anything that will tell you that. The system I sell tells you if you have a fast leak, lost sensor, low pressure and high pressure. They say incorrect pressures many times causes blowouts but not always. I've heard that a tire going bad (getting ready to blow) can cause heat build up which equals high pressure. Several years ago after having a tire go flat at night on a triple axle trailer that eventually came apart and done about $1500 damage to my trailer. I did not go on another trip again until I had a tire pressure monitoring system. I've been using one for about 10 years now and have not had another blow out. It takes me about 12 seconds to check the tire pressure on 12 tires.
