Tire Pressure Gauge
 

I need to replace my tire gauge without breaking the bank.
Used Moroso 89550 for many years.
Any suggestions on a decent accurate good quality gauge? Also any input on the digital gauges? Thanks for the input.

Hi, Drew. I know people will scoff at this, but for years I have used cheapo stick pressure gauges. You can stick 'em in your pocket and they work just fine. I "calibrate" them by borrowing somebody's expensive gauge in the staging lanes to compare numbers. You need to find the low pressure gauge in an auto supply store.

Ken,
Thanks for the input. Funny you mention this because I too have compared my race gauges with standard stick gauges and they are pretty darn close.
Problem with that is at my age I need extra large Font, if you know what I mean.
I have also compared my gauges with some fellow racers that have very expensive gauges and mine seem to be just as accurate. That being said I think I will stick with my ole reliable Moroso piece.
Thanks again.

The cure for the "large font" need is to go to the dollar store and buy reading glasses. I drive with #1's, read small print with #2.75. I also have #2's for using the computer. For a dollar, they're the best deal around.

Good idea but way too much hardware to carry around!

Tire gauges are the most overrated pieces of equipment in drag racing, in my opinion.

I have them and use them, but they are cheap ones.
