NAPA 0-50 PSI. Aluminum body straight stick gauge. For 10 years I find them very accurate. Don't know if they're still available. ********* "Some people are alive today because it's against the law to kill them". | |||

I don't usually breath N2, but when I do, it's usually mixed with O2 and other elements.  "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it." L.Tolstoy "A government is just a body of people, usually, notably, ungoverned." Shepherd Book | |||

Driving a couple miles on city streets, speeds of 35 mph or less, and I tell them 1 psi higher than I actually want. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

What I used to do before I had a compressor: Quick check and then overfilled at the station on the way home. Then checked pressure and bleed out as needed in the morning. Usually about 30 seconds of air at the station was enough. "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it."

Here too! I use an older Intercomp 3.5" Deluxe Glow 0-60 psi tire gauge #9304-03. Great stuff! Certifiable member of the gun toting, septuagenarian, bucket list workin', crazed retiree, bald is beautiful club! USN (RET), COTEP #192 | |||

My old eyes call for the 4" 0-60psi. Very easy to dial in to the PSI. Still fits into the truck glove box. I have an old, smaller made in USA Meiser for the cars. But mostly just use the Intercomp connected to the compressor for everything now. 4" gauge that fills and bleeds. Tire pressure is so easy now. The standalone gauge is really just for offroad treks in the truck now. Air down/up.... "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it."

I use the JACO ElitePro Tire Pressure Gauge - 60 PSI, and the VIAIR 85P Portable Air Compressor. I have a set in each car. So far, no complaints. | |||

Yoop, look no further than a Viair 88P. Airs up my truck tires and even the gauge is accurate. Paired it with a Workpro 16” wide mouth bag for keeping in the truck. -------- After the game, the King and the pawn go into the same box. | |||

Jaco FlowPro 100 PSI I bought this one and compared it to the ones we have at work that are calibrated by our airline and found it to be accurate. | |||

That looks like the same thing as the Rhino that I bought for $10 less. It's accurate enough (more repeatable than the onboard TPMS sensors, at least). I have an inflator in the garage & a gauge in my truck with what looks like the same dial gauge & they read the some on each tire I've tested. It's good enough for street tires. | |||

Yooper, I use the viair 88p to air back up after being on the trails. Thing works fast, and is well under 100. Gauge is accurate on it too. I use an arb deflator to air down | |||

Let me put my opinion another way as no one seems to understand what I meant. What I'm saying is that + or - 2 PSI won't make any major difference in the long run. | |||

Thanks for the tip on the Viair. I jumped on the 89 model. Its RV rated and the longer air hose should be better for me. Got it from United RV. $69. Shipping was pricey, though. $20, End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

Yep it went right over my head. I was thinking well they are not as good as Costco with 100% N2 fills.  | |||

Been happy with the Jaco digitals that I have in my cars and workshop. But I have not done any detailed calibration or accuracy checks. Just happy with build quality, operation and price. | |||

Cute. I was gonna say gotcha but other fellas got you earlier. You had me for a few seconds though, while I thought WTH, oh yea, 78%. Very good sir. Lover of the US Constitution Wile E. Coyote School of DIY Disaster | |||

In the sport of drag racing tire pressure ( in the slicks) is very important) and is checked constantly just before a run. One day while at a the track we took 6 guages and checked various tires. guess how many different readings we got. and these are expensive guages. | |||
