As for tubeless. I'm not saying no just yet, but a more economical option might be the tire pressure monitor linked above.
You can get a floor pump with a gauge and pump up to the suggested psi every time you ride. That way you can monitor if a tire has a leak. You should also be able to tell if the road feel changes.
