the longacre is very easy to read, and its only ~$30
|
Hmm I gotta buy one. The local parts store gauges are not that accurate.
|
I too love my longacre

I usually hit up pawn shops and find something that's nice an sturdy that does peak an hold
They tend to be nice quality on the cheap |
I really like my Joe's Racing Gauge. The best part really is the straight-swivel chuck.
I'm warry of used analog gauges, since they are prone to damage if tossed around. My friend had one that read 6 psi off after a few years of being chucked around his garage. It's a precision instrument, but not everyone treats it like one. |
The digital tire pressure gauges are pretty reliable. Some may not like it and prefer to go with the traditional type. There are quite of few on the market so just compare the reviews on different brands.
